    • Demonstration

    ★Ono-Inomoto-Tanabe Laboratory (Department of Advanced Energy)
    Now that the construction of the international nuclear reactor has started. The current issue is to lower the cost of an actual reactor as economical as a light-water reactor. In the experiment of the University of Tokyo Spherical Tokamak (UTST), we made donut-shaped magnetic containers, which confine plasmas into a shape like an apple and maximized the plasma confinement pressure per magnetic field by merging them like the corona of the sun and heating them rapidly. This experiment elucidates "magnetic reconnection," one of the basic phenomena of the sun and the universe, and utilizes the phenomenon efficiently. Our laboratory is Japan's research hub for laboratory astronomy and economical fusion reactor development. We will showcase the plasma merging devices and demonstrate a small-size plasma experiment.

There are several types of machines, and each type has its advantages and disadvantages. Why is it so difficult to read genomes correctly? How does the long-read sequencer (one of the machines at our laboratory) overcome the problems? Visitors can learn the answers to these questions and see the actual sequencer.
