PickVidsBest Nuclear power & fusion Videos
「Nuclear power & fusion」下面有51部被不同的人、在不同月份推荐过的视频。挑的时候先看对象：入门4部，适合还没学过的人；进阶12部，适合已经懂术语的人；普通向32部，按兴趣就能看；更硬的3部，留给想看推导或细节的人。这一类数量最多的是演讲，所以它们的共同点是一位讲者把一个判断讲完，例子是为了撑住这个判断。常出现的频道包括Google TechTalks、Illinois EnergyProf、Improbable Matter。目录给这个主题划的范围是：Nuclear energy: fission reactors, Chernobyl, Fukushima, nuclear waste, small modular reactors, fusion, ITER, nuclear safety, uranium, energy policy debates about nuclear.如果只看三部，就从《MIT's Pathway to Fusion Energy (IAP 2017) - Zach Hartwig》开始，它负责把问题讲出画面；然后看《Breakthrough in Nuclear Fusion? - Prof. Dennis Whyte》，换一种讲法或例子；最后看《How close is nuclear fusion power?》，留给已经有基础的人。页面按每页24部切开，顺序看的是被推荐跨越了多少个月，不是播放量。每条标题下面那一句是这部片子自己的内容说明，用来区分它在讲定义、过程、演示还是观点。点进去能看到推荐原话、原文链接和适合谁看。看的时候把强烈推荐当成有人明确叫你去看，把引用当成只是拿来举例，把批评留下来对照，不要把每条评论都当成同一力度。
