> while in practice only the Tokamak is being worked on practically.

Other than the very experiment the OP is about.




Not really. Wendelstein is not for practical usage of fusion. It's only there to make a point that the Tokomak design is inferior, and all the money should have went to the germans instead.

But thanksfully both teams are working together. We will see if something better will come out of it. Even if I'm extremely sceptical on both.
