Thomas W. Morgan is an Associate Professor at Eindhoven University of Technology, affiliated with the Science and Technology of Nuclear Fusion department. As a Group Leader at the DIFFER Dutch Institute for Fundamental Energy Research, his research focuses on plasma-wall interactions, fusion reactor materials, and liquid metal divertor technologies. His work contributes to UN Sustainable Development Goals related to affordable and clean energy.
His research interests include tungsten and lithium material performance under plasma exposure, hydrogen retention mechanisms, and advanced divertor concepts for fusion reactors. Notable collaborations involve Magnum-PSI, ASDEX Upgrade, and DIII-D tokamak facilities. He has supervised 21 research projects and contributed to datasets like the LiMeS-lab initiative for liquid-metal shield development.
Recent studies emphasize liquid metal droplet dynamics, plasma-induced surface modifications, and vapor shielding strategies. His work addresses critical challenges in heat flux management and material durability for future fusion reactors like ITER and DEMO.
