Tokamak Plasma Control Systems
Fusion reactors require real-time plasma control at millisecond timescales. Achieving net-positive energy requires precise feedback.
Control System
\\\`python class PlasmaController: def init(self): self.targettemp = 150000000 # 150 million Kelvin self.magneticfield = 5.3 # Tesla
def controlloop(self, dt=0.001): # 1ms timestep while self.isrunning: plasmastate = self.measureplasma()
if plasmastate.temp < self.targettemp: self.increase_heating()
if self.detectinstability(plasmastate): self.emergency_shutdown()
self.adjustmagneticfield(plasma_state) time.sleep(dt) \\\` Milestone: Net-positive energy achieved 2027 Related: Post-Scarcity Collapse (2058)
