ITER is a vast subject that will take time to explore. Every few months we hope you’ll look forward to receiving news from the frontiers of ITER science and technology, the
enterprising world of high-precision industry, and from the hilltop in Provence where
it’s all coming together.
This magazine is for you. We’d be happy to receive your suggestions and remarks for its improvement at the email address listed below.
In ITER Member factories on three continents, manufacturing has begun for the components of the ITER Tokamak. Here's a look inside the Hyundai shipyard in Korea where two of the nine ITER vacuum vessel sectors are under construction.
On a vast plot of land in southern France, the ITER scientific installation is taking shape. Let's take stock of construction progress, three years after works began.
ITER has always been more than an international research project. When in the early 1980s scientists urged for the construction of a large machine that would demonstrate the feasibility of fusion energy—the energy of the Sun and stars—world...
Reproducing in a man-made machine the physical reactions that occur at the core of the Sun has been the aim of fusion research for the past 60 years. Building on the experience accumulated by hundreds of fusion machines throughout the world...
The ITER Project and its division of tasks between multiple actors can be confusing. Below are some elements of response to the question: 'Who does what at ITER?' ITER Organization (IO) is responsible for the design of the ITER Tokamak and ...
A successful journey ... to be replicated 200 times
After successfully navigating the ITER Itinerary for four consecutive nights, the test convoy reaches the ITER site. 4:45 a.m., Friday 20 September 2013: The 800-ton trailer rolls to a slow stop on the ITER site in the early morning h...
Tokamak: the name is an acronym from the Russian 'toroidal chamber, magnetic coils.' It describes a type of particularly efficient fusion machine that was developed by Soviet research in the late 1960s and adopted worldwide during the follo...
