The Quest for a Fusion Energy Reactor

27 May 2010 00:00:00 GMT

An Insider's Account of the INTOR Workshop

By Weston M. Stacey

£14.99 27 May 2010 Hardback Oxford University Press

At the German Superpower Summit in November 1985, secretary of the former Soviet Union Mikhail Gorbachev and U.S. President Ronald Regan agreed to pursue an international effort to develop fusion energy for peaceful purposes. At a time when tension between these cold war nations was very high, how were these leaders able to come together to work toward making nuclear fusion a feasible energy source?

The Quest for a Fusion Energy Reactor is the story of the INTOR Workshop (INternational TOkamak Reactor), which brought together scientists and engineers from Europe, Japan, the United States, and the USSR from 1978 to 1988 to share their individual research and work cooperatively on the design and development possibilities for harnessing nuclear energy. Drawing on his insights while serving as vice chairman of the INTOR Workshop, Weston Stacey offers an insider's account of both the participants' technical work and their fascinating political interactions under the blanket of the cold war. An accessible presentation of their research on the viability of designing, constructing, and operating a Tokamak experimental power reactor is combined with personal anecdotes of the obstacles Workshop leaders and participants faced as they strove to make progress on the global future of nuclear fusion technology while balancing their own countries' priorities. The Workshop led to the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (lTER), construction of which began in 2009 with the goal of demonstrating the scientific and technical feasibility of fusion power.

The book is intended not only for professionals, academics, and students studying fusion science and engineering, but also for anyone interested in the intersection of science, politics, and international relations. Its historical appeal is complemented by the personal portrait that it paints of the individuals involved in the INTOR Workshop, their roles and decisions, and how their efforts contributed to the greater crucial conversation on sustainable energy.

Multivariate Methods in High Energy Physics: The Neural Network Revolution

01 Jun 2009 00:00:00 GMT

By Bhat, Pushpalatha C.

£44.00 01 Jun 2009 Hardback World Scientific Publishing Company

Physicists are conducting increasingly complex experiments in the hope of advancing our understanding of the universe. To fully exploit the discovery potential of these experiments it will be crucial to use optimal methods of data analysis. Since physical processes are generally characterized by many variables, optimal methods are necessarily multivariate, and neural networks are the most promising of them. These have the potential to revolutionize data exploration in high energy physics -- witness, as a recent example, the spectacular success with which neural networks have been used in top quark physics and searches for new particles.

This book draws together the dispersed expertise of the scientific community to provide a unified, coherent and practical exposition of multivariate methods as they are (and will be) applied. It is a timely reference for high energy physicists and researchers in related fields who need a concise introduction to the subject. The first three chapters contain an exposition of the main concepts of multivariate methods, while the remaining chapters focus on applications using real examples. A convincing case is made that neural networks will be the method of choice in future analyses.
