Adelle Wright is bridging the gap between fusion science and real-world energy technology
In her highly interdisciplinary research, Adelle Wright brings together cutting-edge insights from plasma physics, applied mathematics and computer science to enable the development and deployment of fusion as a clean energy technology.
Wright studies magnetohydrodynamics, which describes the macroscopic behavior of magnetically confined plasma, the ultra-hot ionized gas that produces energy in a fusion reactor.
