Strategic Objectives
• Master the nuclear physics of lithium-neutron interactions.
• Explore the engineering of solid and liquid breeding blankets.
• Understand advanced tritium extraction and purification technologies.
• Analyze the safety and containment protocols for radioactive isotopes.
The Core Challenge
While fusion promises limitless energy, the world lacks a natural supply of tritium, requiring complex breeding systems that don't yet exist at scale.
