SUMMARY:Overview of Fusion at ORNL \, Plasma Physics (Physics/ECE/NE 9
 22) Seminar\, Dr. Troy Carter\, Oak Ridge National Laboratory
DESCRIPTION:Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) has a long and storie
 d history of contributions to fusion research spanning plasma physics\
 , fusion materials\, and fusion enabling technologies.  I will highlig
 ht ORNL’s capabilities and recent contributions across the fusion en
 ergy landscape\, including the development of facilities (e.g. the Mat
 erials Plasma Exposure eXperiment (MPEX)) and science and technology a
 dvances (e.g. developing exhaust solutions for future fusion devices\,
  enabling record performance on Wendelstein 7-X through pellet fueling
  and progress on assessing blanket concepts including both modeling an
 d experiments).   Partnerships are essential on our path to commercial
 ize fusion energy:  I will also discuss how ORNL is working to build p
 artnerships with the private sector\, universities\, state and local g
 overnment and regional organizations with the goal of addressing scien
 ce and technology gaps\, building the needed fusion workforce and stim
 ulating regional supply chain development.
