I fail to find this info: how much energy did they get out? How much did they pump in? How long does it have to burn until there's energy in-out equilibrium?


* No energy was 'captured'.

* They pumped in "2 MW of heating power".

* This expirement wasn't about energy in-out, it was about plasma control. Specifically stopping at 1337 seconds is a way of announcing "and we could have gone longer, but we liked this number"
