Experimental physicist Stefano Coda from the Swiss Federal Technology Institute of Lausanne (EPFL) and colleagues have been awarded the 2026 Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion (PPCF) Outstanding Paper Prize for their research on magnetic confinement fusion.
The work – Enhanced confinement in diverted negative-triangularity L-mode plasmas in TCV – is based on simulations and experiments on the TCV tokamak based at the EPFL.

Fusion is usually performed via two types of plasma confinement. Magne
