DESCRIPTION:Thermonuclear fusion is the power source of the stars and has 
 the potential to be an almost inexhaustible source of clean\, renewable en
 ergy. Experiments on the National Ignition Facility at the Lawrence Liverm
 ore Laboratory in California are now tantalisingly close to achieving the 
 ignition of a fusion plasma\, but there is still a long way to go before t
 his inertial fusion approach can be become a realistic energy source. In t
 his lecture Professor Chittenden describes how computer simulations are be
 ing utilised in circumventing some of nature's obstacles and helping us ed
 ge closer towards achieving ignition.\n\nThe talk is *free* for CUPS membe
 rs\, *£2* for non-members\, and will be followed by a wine reception.
