Recently, Startorus Fusion and a team from Tsinghua University achieved dual-loop plasma and magnetic reconnection heating on the SUNIST-2 spherical tokamak, observing significant plasma heating effects.

In the third quarter of 2023, the key plasma parameters and performance of the high pulse generator of SUNIST-2 spherical tokamak, a fusion experimental device designed by Tsinghua University and jointly constructed by Startorus Fusion and Tsinghua University, doubled compared with the previous quarter, and several indicators such as the toroidal magnetic field have topped domestically and reached the third place globally in the field of spherical tokamak; the company has also made significant progress in multiple fields, including the industrialization of high-temperature superconducting magnets, digital twins technique of the tokamak as well as fusion-derived technologies.

SUNIST-2 was designed by Tsinghua University and constructed by both the university and Startorus
