9600280 Martin This award supports a 24 month Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) Postdoctoral Fellowship for Dr. Adam Martin at the Plasma Physics Laboratory, Osaka University, Osaka, Japan. Dr. Martin will work with Dr. Shigefume Okada, professor in the Faculty of Engineering, on a research project entitled, "Measurement of the Internal Magnetic Fields on the FIX Experiment." The proposed research will examine the various problems involved in the development of controlled fusion as an energy source. The central challenge is to use magnetic fields to confine a hot plasma long enough to produce a sustained thermo-nuclear reaction. One of the most promising avenues for accomplishing this is the Field Reversed Configuration, or FRC, a innovative device that makes the most efficient use of its magnetic field and is the simplest cold fusion mechanism to build and maintain. To better understand the FRC it is important to ascertain the internal structure of the magnetic field that confines the hot plasma. The research will measure this magnetic field in the FRC Injection Experiment (FIX) at Osaka University in Japan, using an innovative technique called Localized Faraday Rotation (LFR). The results of the analysis will provide insights into theoretical and applied research questions relating to controlled fusion as a practical, reliable, and clean energy source for the international community. ***

小行星9600280 该奖项支持了为期24个月的日本科学促进协会（JSPS）博士后研究金，用于Adam Martin博士在日本大坂大学等离子体物理实验室的研究。 Martin博士将与工学部教授Shigefume Okada博士一起进行题为“FIX实验中内部磁场的测量”的研究项目。" 拟议中的研究将审查受控聚变作为一种能源的发展所涉及的各种问题。 核心的挑战是利用磁场来限制热等离子体足够长的时间，以产生持续的热核反应。 实现这一目标的最有希望的途径之一是场反向配置（FRC），这是一种创新设备，可以最有效地利用其磁场，并且是构建和维护最简单的冷聚变机制。为了更好地理解FRC，重要的是要确定限制热等离子体的磁场的内部结构。 这项研究将在日本大坂大学的FRC注入实验（FIX）中测量这种磁场，使用一种称为局部法拉第旋转（LFR）的创新技术。 分析结果将为国际社会提供与受控聚变作为实用，可靠和清洁能源有关的理论和应用研究问题的见解。 ***
