Magnetic Confinement Reactor.
For decades, scientists have been searching for the secret to fusion: the act of forcing atoms together under intense heat and pressure to release untold amounts of energy. Learning how to do this would create the most efficient source of power to use on this planet, solving nearly every societal and environmental challenge facing us today. Unfortunately, the nearest fusion reactor we know of is the star Sol at the center of our solar system. Until we get 338 million-billion cubic miles of space, over five thousand kelvin to burn it with, and 198.9 million-million-million kilograms of material to burn, we will need to get clever.
But we're humans. Of course we can get clever.
If we can't create the pressure using actual mass, perhaps we can simulate it with electromagnetism. Superconductive materials like niobium alloys can conduct this energy marvelously, and even more so at temperatures approaching 0 Kelvin. The designs call for a large torus made of this material. When charged, anything inside of the ring will be forced into a microscopic space and superheat to temperatures of 5000K or more, making the steepest temperature gradient in the known universe. Under these conditions, fusion can occur with ease.
It's elaborate, but to some extent, it works.
