What else can I help you with?
I am what is being investigated to contain fusion reaction?
You are most likely referring to a magnetic confinement fusion device, such as a tokamak or a stellarator. These devices use powerful magnetic fields to confine and control high-temperature plasma, enabling the conditions necessary for a controlled fusion reaction to occur. Scientists and researchers study and investigate these devices in order to develop a viable and sustainable method of achieving nuclear fusion as a clean and abundant source of energy.
Where does fusion reaction occur except from star and sun?
Fusion reactions can occur in laboratories through devices like tokamaks and inertial confinement fusion reactors. These devices use controlled conditions to generate the extreme temperatures and pressures needed for fusion to take place.
How is electromagnetism used in containing nuclear fusion reactions?
The earliest attempts at fusion reactor design used magnetic confinement to compress the fuel plasma as well as keep it away from the reaction vessel walls. The best such designs were derived from the Russian tokamak toroidal reactors. Newer attempts use inertial confinement (like H-bomb secondaries) and have come much closer to break-even than tokamak types have. No magnetic fields are used here.
What is the explanation for the process of nuclear fusion?
Fusion reactions occur under immense pressures, such as those found in the centre of the sun. To artificially produce fusion reactions here on earth, we either use MCF (magnetic confinement fusion) or ICF (inertial confinement fusion) to create the pressure and temperature necessary for small elements to fuse together, releasing energy.
Do nuclear reactors use lasers?
Nuclear reactors do not typically use lasers as a primary component in their operation. Lasers are more commonly used in research, industry, and medical applications. Nuclear reactors rely on controlled nuclear fission reactions to generate heat for electricity production.
What processes use lasers?
Answer this question… inertial confinement fusion

Use of magnets to contain plasma?
Magnets are used in fusion reactors to create a magnetic field that contains and stabilizes the hot plasma. This magnetic confinement prevents the plasma from coming into contact with the walls of the reactor, allowing it to reach the temperatures and densities required for nuclear fusion reactions to occur. This method is known as magnetic confinement or magnetic confinement fusion.

Does the military use lasers?
yes they do happen to use lasers, though im not sure for what...
Can the sun shoot lasers?
No, the sun does not shoot lasers. It emits energy in the form of sunlight through a process called nuclear fusion, where hydrogen atoms in its core fuse to form helium. Laser beams are man-made devices that use stimulated emission of radiation to produce a highly focused beam of light.
What lasers does Pretty Lights use?
He uses Lightwave RGB lasers
How do scientists hope to use lasers in nuclear fusion?
TO initiate fusion process very high temperature of the order of 100 million kelvin is needed. Such a high temperature could be produced by laser beam if it is used in a different technique. That is why sciectists rely on laser.
Why havent humans been able to build a fusion reactor?
We have not been able to build a stable, controlled fusion reactor because of the problem of confinement. In order to sustain a fusion reaction, we need to hold the fuel together. That requires tremendous energy in order to overcome the electromagnetic force that would otherwise cause the various nuclei to repel each other, and in order for the residual binding energy (nuclear force) to initiate fusion.In the Sun, that is easy. Gravity does it. Problem is, that a reactor large enough to use gravity would be larger than the Earth and would destroy the Earth.Its not a "problem" with an uncontrolled fusion bomb. We have that technology perfected. The "problem" is doing so in a controlled fashion, and we have not been able to do so for more than about 500 milliseconds.Other methods are being explored, such as inertial confinement and magnetic confinement. Magnetic confinement is the basis for the Tokamak, which is the foundation of the ITER project in France. There are substantial technical issues involved, and we do not expect first plasma production until 2019, with end of project slated for 2038. Even then, we are only talking about 500MW thermal output for 1000 seconds, based on 50MW of input power, with no production of electricity - all at a cost of around 100 billion euros.
