Fusion Energy with Matthias Wiesenberger

How can we copy the Sun as an energy source here on Earth?In this episode, we get to hear how Fusion is the energy of the Sun and stars and holds the potential for abundant, clean energy for humanity. However, there are challenges that emerge when trying to reproduce conditions similar to the core of a star here on Earth. ⁠Matthias Wiesenberger⁠ holds a PhD in physics from the University of Innsbruck, Austria and currently works as a researcher at the ⁠Danish Technical University in Copenhagen⁠, Denmark. He is the author of several publications in theoretical Fusion physics, ⁠numerical analysis and high-performance computing⁠.2:00 Meet Matthias Wiesenberger4:35  What is Fusion Energy 9:58 How can we model the Sun here on Earth 17:00 Design approaches, Inertial and Magnetic  26:15 Research within theoretical modelling 32:20 Leveraging high performance computing 34:00 Feltor, a software to study fluid dynamics (specifically plasma) and turbulence36:00 Discussing commercial viability39:00 Start-ups in Fusion Energy Continue listening, up nextThe Fusion Age with Søren Bang Korsholm⁠This episode was,Edited by Preneil Pillay Hosted by Prichelle RugdeoOriginal music and sound mastering by Jakob Ranum,⁠ Studio25⁠Produced by Prichelle Rugdeo and Preneil Pillay
