This book offers a detailed examination of the latest work on the
potential of polarized fuel to realize the vision of energy
production by nuclear fusion. It brings together contributions
from nuclear physicists and fusion physicists with the aims of
fostering exchange of information between the two communities,
describing the current status in the field, and examining new
ideas and projects under development.

It is evident that polarized fuel can offer huge improvements for
the first generation of fusion reactors and open new
technological possibilities for future generations, including
neutron lean reactors, which could be the most popular and
sustainable energy production option to avoid environmental
problems. Nevertheless, many questions must be resolved before
polarized fuel can be used for energy production in the different
reactor types. Readers will find this book to be a
stimulating source of information on the key issues. It is based
on contributions from leading scientists delivered at the
meetings “Nuclear Fusion with Polarized Nucleons” (Trento,
November 2013) and “PolFusion” (Ferrara, July 2015).
