France, Fusion Reactor and tokamak record

How the World's Largest Fusion Reactor Landed in France
In this final segment of RealClearScience's interview with Laban Conblentz, Head of Communication at ITER, Coblentz shares the tale of how the world's largest fusion reactor came to be built in the pi
France runs fusion reactor for record 22 minutes
France has upped the ante in the quest for fusion power by maintaining a plasma reaction for over 22 minutes – a new record. The milestone was reached on February 12 at the Commissariat à l'énergie atomique et aux énergies alternatives (CEA) WEST Tokamak reactor.
France tops China’s tokamak record with 22-minute plasma containment run
Nice number, but also not much more than a nice advance France’s Commissariat à L'énergie Atomique et aux Energies Alternatives on Tuesday claimed it’s topped China’s recently-established for record maintaining fusion plasma in a tokamak,
