Making the invisible visible

The X-ray inspection underway on sector #1 is part of a wider set of tools used to verify critical welds.

More than 2,000 supports per sector

The blueprint says it all. Pointing at precise locations inside the vacuum vessel sector, hundreds and hundreds of arrows—each with a unique reference number—indicate where the anchoring features for diagnostic sensors...

On the Adriatic, heading to ITER

Another piece of the ITER construction puzzle is arriving. Two days ago in Monfalcone, Italy, European-procured vacuum vessel sector #9 was loaded onto the cargo vessel that will deliver it to the south of France.

Creative solutions implemented on site

How to replace critical cooling circuits on thermal shield panels that are hard to access or too large to easily transport off site?

Pair of “safe hands” strikes again

With the acceleration of ITER machine assembly, ITER's bridge cranes are seldom idle.

3rd Public-Private Fusion Workshop: Register now

In January, ITER released a save-the-date and survey for its Spring 2026 Public-Private Fusion Workshop, which is taking place on Tuesday and Wednesday, 28-29 April. The response was strong and enthusiastic. Survey...

The story behind the coffee mug

At ITER, it’s common to see whiteboards covered with physics equations. What’s less ordinary in the offices, although increasingly prevalent, is a dark blue coffee mug with one of these equations handwritten along its...

High hydrogen + low density = top protection

To protect machinery from possible radiation damage, ITER has applied a layer of first-of-its-kind protective mortar to the floors of rooms housing sensitive electronics.

Robots, tools and teams playing in unison

In an on-site building originally designed for beryllium-related activities and now dedicated to assembly preparation, as well as in factories in India and Japan, a major “project within the project” is taking shape. Its...

No pause in action

Careful planning by the construction teams ensures that the giant tools used to assemble vacuum vessel modules are never idle for long.

Extreme vigilance, successful installation

The fourth of nine sector modules has been successfully lowered into place using an approach that treats each installation as a first-of-its-kind operation to ensure readiness for any eventuality. The two-day operation...

Second gyrotron installed on site

The third level of the Radiofrequency Building is now occupied by a forest of dull grey piping, shining steel manifolds and brightly coloured cables. At the far end of the space, a constant humming is an indication that...

Old dogs, new tricks

ITER’s security needs are evolving as the project’s needs evolve, but traditional guard dogs remain as valuable as ever.

Vladimir Mukhovatov, a fusion pioneer

The ITER Organization is saddened to learn of the death of Vladimir Mukhovatov, a Russian physicist who played a key role in establishing the scientific basis for ITER.

Redundancy achieved: spare solenoid module arrives at ITER

As the last highly exceptional load from the United States, the transport of the solenoid module was a momentous occasion carried out with the usual high-level logistics, rigorous security… and respect for frogs.

A novel way of measuring fusion power

The fusion of hydrogen isotopes deuterium (D) and tritium (T) acts predictably most of the time, producing a helium atom and a neutron that is released at high speed. Yet every once in a while—if only for an instant—DT...

Closing the lid, testing the juice

A view of magnet cold test facility progress.

Compendium of ITER design principles taking shape

The first chapters of the ITER Engineering Basis Handbook , Volume 1, have been released and more will follow soon.

ITER’s 3rd Public-Private Fusion Workshop

For the past two years, ITER has opened its doors to private sector fusion companies for joint workshops on areas of mutual interest and mechanisms for positive engagement. This year’s workshop will take place on 28 and...

Blue goo, good to go

With a final dollop of vibrant Smurf-blue goo, another penetration benchmark was reached in December—the infilling of 15 busbar openings on the L3 and L4 levels of the Tokamak Building.
