TL;DR: Hawryluk et al. as mentioned in this paper described the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor (TFTR) experiments on high-temperature plasmas, that culminated in the study of deuterium-to-tritium D-T Plasmas containing significant populations of energetic alpha particles, spanned over two decades from conception to completion.
