26 Recent Results on JET (Fusion)

JET ran some experiments in 1991 using a 10% tritium mix, and
produced 1.7 megawatts of fusion power. Since then researchers
have been reconfiguring the machine. (Anybody know if plasma
operation has begun?)

Appended below are comments adapted from a post I made on Feb 12,
1994 (which in turn referenced a Dec 14, 1993 posting by
Stephen Cooper at JET), which provide more background to the
JET & TFTR results.
