JET
European torus project
JET typically stands for Joint European Torus, a nuclear fusion research facility in the UK that has conducted pioneering experiments in plasma physics and fusion energy.
The acronym also appears in other specialized contexts. (Lowercase jet is a stream of fluid, an aircraft, or a black gemstone.)
