Technology and Science Applications

The Technology and Science Applications (TSA) Program was born out of the fusion enabling technologies developed and work performed under the US National Magnetic Fusion Energy Program. The role of the TSA program is to apply our plasma science and technology to the needs of industrial customers, transfer technology to the private sector, and help customers access our resources and capabilities to solve tough problems.
