Chicago Pile-5 was the last in the line of research reactor that began with the first, which was constructed as part of what project?
Chicago Pile-5 Chicago Pile-5 (CP-5) was the last of the line of Chicago Pile research reactors which started with CP-1 in 1943. The first reactor built on the Argonne National Laboratory-East site, it operated from 1954-1979.
Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor The Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor (TFTR) was an experimental tokamak built at Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) circa 1980 and entering service in 1982. TFTR was designed with the explicit goal of reaching break-even, the point where the heat being released from the fusion reactions in the plasma is equal or greater than the heating being supplied to the plasma by external devices to warm it up.
