View of a "shot" on the Large Helical Device though a side port. (hit your keyboard's escape key to stop the animation) The Large Helical Device is a fusion research device located in Japan and is the largest superconducting stellarator in the world and employs a heliotron magnetic field originally developed in Japan. The objective of the project is to conduct fusion plasma confinement research in a steady-state in order to elucidate possible solutions to physics and engineering problems in helical plasma reactors.
