JET's DTE2 campaign releases 59 MJ in a single pulse
node
During the DTE2 deuterium-tritium campaign, JET released 59 MJ of fusion energy in a five-second pulse in December 2021, roughly tripling the single-pulse energy of the 1997 record. This was a record of total fusion energy released, not of energy gain; JET's Q did not exceed the 1997 value.
A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
