Medical Definition of Alpha channeling

1. Term for an idea (so far theoretical) in magnetic confinement fusion, the idea is that plasma waves can be used to control the alpha particles produced in a fusion reactor, to transfer their energy directly to fuel ions, and to help push them out of the plasma. This could potentially help to substantially improve the power output capabilities of fusion plasmas. (09 Oct 1997)
