. In this paper, we present a concept for a new class of quasi-isodynamic (QI) stellarators leveraging HTS technology to overcome well-known challenges of a tokamak. This class of QI-HTS stellarators, labeled Stellaris, is shown to achieve an extensive set of desirable properties for reactor candidates simultaneously for the first time, offering a compelling path toward commercially viable fusion energy. (…)

The physics design point proposed in this study provides a maximum of 2.7 GW of fusion energy, which – together with power multiplication in the blanket – results in about 3.1 GW of thermal power for the plant. It is worth noting that the machine presented here will similarly be able to operate at lower total power, though likely at the cost of economic attractiveness. We estimate a required regular maintenance interval of four to six years for scheduled component substitutions, given structural degradation of the first wall. (…)

Stellaris is a first-of-a-kind concept for a high-field, QI stellarator fusion power plant. It combines significant physics performance improvements, an integrated and self-consistent engineering feasibility study, and novel concepts for key subsystems and operations. Due to the QI symmetry of the magnetic field, Stellaris is designed to operate as an intrinsically steady-state device without disruptions. (…)

. Until now, no single consistent stellarator reactor study has been presented that fulfills all relevant performance aspects of stellarator configuration simultaneously, including an engineering feasibility analysis that builds credibility for a reactor candidate. This paper aims to address this gap, suggesting a new stellarator concept alongside a broad range of analyses targeted at indicating viability for a power plant prototype.

The Russian economy will collapse, sooner or later.

I agree, but think it's later. Russia needs to lose on the battlefield as well before they stop the war.

Bring back forum signatures.

Because of widespread use PREP/PEP, there's a growing number of people who stopped using any protection including the aforementioned meds..

Exactly, it can go bat -> livestock/pet -> human just as well.

Russia has been steadily and slowly gaining territory over the last year.

If the Russia had to switch to defending territory without gaining anything more, how would it push for a victory before its economy collapsing?

The current attempt is Trump. It's doubtful the Russian economy will collapse any time soon. They still have some slack and the Russian population could suffer far more. Their strategy after the first couple of months was to outlast Ukraine and its supporters. The moaning about costs in the countries supporting Ukraine is only growing. Russia has a firm lid on all opposition.

Nobody is doing the same for the Russia

Kazachstan

They only recently deployed soldiers in the capital there.

John Mearsheimer

is not the be all end all of geopolitics. His "realist" perspective is limited and he has often been wrong, including regarding Ukraine.

Maersheimer is also an apologist for imperialism.

who foresaw this war coming ten years ago

The war started when Russia took Crimea in 2014, that's 11 years ago. Georgia was invaded in 2008.

MItt Romney warned of Russian agression back in 2012.

Dugin's Foundation of Geopolitics was published in 1997 and outlined how Russia could regain its lost empire.

This is likely against the rules of most instances and could get you banned.

Any type of grass or non poisonous vegetation works.

Not so easy during winter.

You can't just leave them grazing wherever. Mines and artillery kill them just as well.

Some fodder will need to be brought in for them.

Mules are used in many militaries by the mountain troops. Only they can navigate small trails high up and transport cargo.

Start doing something about it, please.

In the 1990s, the US would have been glad if the Europeans would have managed the Yugoslav disintegration and ensuing wars with ethnic cleansing themselves. They were unable and had to rely on the US in Bosnia and Kosovo.
