Industry benefits in a number of different ways from the research and technology activities of the European Fusion Programme, overseen by the European Commission. These benefits range from: winning contracts to supply equipment and services to fusion labor ...
Recent experiments in the Joint European Torus (JET) have provided evidence of sawtooth stabilization by fast ions arising from deuterium neutral beam injection (NBI). A possible theoretical basis for the interpretation of the observed sawtooth period beha ...
The Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe (FZK) and the Centre de Recherches en Physique des Plasmas (CRPP) are working on a joint development program to construct and test a 70 kA current lead using High Temperature Superconductors (HTS) for the Toroidal Field (TF) ...
The preparative experimental and analysis work as well as the code development for testing the ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) TFMC, one of the large projects of the ITER research and development programme, is described. The expecte ...
The evolution of superconductors for fusion research is introduced with a review of a few relevant milestones of the last 25 years. The cable-in-conduit conductors (CICC) are the most promising option for future fusion devices. The design aspects and test ...
In the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) toroidal field model coil (TFMC) the experimental evaluation of the superconducting critical properties will only be possible by heating the helium upstream of the inner joint. In this coil onl ...
An electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) system is presently under construction at Commissariat A l'Energie Atomique (CEA) Cadarache for the Tore Supra experiment. The generator is planned to be made of six gyrotrons giving RF waves with a frequency ...
A large CdTe-based tomographic system has been installed two years ago on the TORE SUPRA tokamak, for a detailed investigation of the dynamics of fast electrons generated by radio-frequency waves in Fusion plasmas, as a function of time, space and energy. ...
The JET experimental campaign has focused on studies in support of the ITER physics basis. An overview of the results obtained is given for the reference ELMy H mode and advanced scenarios, which in JET are based on internal transport barriers. JET studies ...
The European Home Team is responsible for the design, the fabrication and the test of the Toroidal Field Model Coil (TFMC) of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), Within this task, three full size samples had to be fabricated by ind ...
