Arktis Detectors for Nuclear Fusion – Towards green nuclear energy

Arktis' neutron detection technology based on natural Helium has been considered as one of the most promising for the largest international research project on nuclear fusion ITER.

Arktis' neutron detection technology based on natural Helium has been considered as one of the most promising for the largest international research project on nuclear fusion ITER. Specific tests are ongoing for a further down selection expected in Summer 2020.  ITER ('the way', in Latin) will be the first fusion device to test the integrated technologies, materials, and physics regimes necessary for the commercial production of fusion-based electricity.
