The project will draw on ORNL’s expertise in fuels, materials, instrumentation and controls, design concepts, and modeling and simulation for advanced reactors, as well as the lab’s experience in the design, construction and operation of the Molten Salt Reactor Experiment, the only molten salt reactor ever built. The ORNL-SINAP CRADA.

Advances in magnet technology have enabled researchers at MIT to propose a new design for a practical compact tokamak fusion reactor that might be realized in as little as a decade: the ARC (affordable, robust, compact) reactor. Thus ARC offers a high power gain with relatively large external control of the current profile.

This is the moment that the concept of electronic paper, or e-paper, went mainstream. Its story began a decade earlier, in 1997, at the MIT Media Lab , when it was created by two students, J.D.

Those objections added to the concerns environmentalists were raising about the ozone layer—a scenario seemingly justified a few years later by MIT researchers, who concluded that a future fleet of 500 supersonic airliners would deplete the ozone layer by 16 percent. Clearly, nobody would accept stone-fracturing sonic booms. Boom Supersonic.

In 2016, as the standards were being sorted out for 5G, a clash emerged in trying to decide what error-correcting technique would be used for wireless signals. So how will concepts like privacy, security, or sustainability be embedded in 6G—if at all? 6G still has time to congeal—or not. billion in 2020.
