Realta Fusion Tech Stack
Linear fusion reactor design and development from UW-Madison physics
Realta Fusion emerged from University of Wisconsin-Madison physics research in 2022 to build compact, modular fusion reactors for industrial heat and power. The stack is physics-first: Python, Julia, and Fortran dominate compute, paired with standard enterprise tools (AWS, Azure, Microsoft 365). Active projects reveal an organization mid-transition from experimental validation to engineering scale—they're running plasma diagnostics on their WHAM device, building digital twins, and designing electrical and heating systems for pilot deployment.
