EAST achieves 403-second H-mode record

EAST achieves 403-second H-mode plasma

Experiments performed this month on the EAST superconducting tokamak in Hefei, China, have demonstrated record sustainment of high temperature plasmas in the so-called H-mode confinement regime, surpassing 400 seconds.

Who was Hannes Alfvén?

If you are a plasma physicist, you certainly know all about Hannes Alfvén (äl′vān / pronounced AL-vee-en) already—but what about the rest of us? And why does his name keep cropping up in association with ITER?

Welding robots at work

Robots at work

Contained in every double-walled sector of the ITER vacuum vessel are approximately 1.5 kilometres of welds. The Spanish firm Equipos Nucleares SA (ENSA)—sub-contractor to Europe's vacuum vessel consortium AMW—is using...

Technical Coordination Meeting relaunched

"You may wonder why we are bringing back the Technical Coordination Meeting of old," said ITER Director-General Pietro Barabaschi as he opened the first session of the four-day hybrid meeting in mid-April that gathered...

"Blue hour" on the ITER platform

Less familiar than the "golden hour," when the setting (or rising) Sun colours the landscape a golden hue, the "blue hour," which occurs just before sunrise or just after sunset, is a magic moment for photographers.

Toward new activities

In August 2010, close to 13 years ago, construction work began on a vast workshop for the manufacturing of ITER's largest ring-shaped coils. Designed and financed by Europe , the Poloidal Field Coils Winding Facility was...

Big muscle for a huge load

It takes a lot of muscle to move a 900-tonne load. On Thursday 6 April, no fewer than six self-propelled modular transport platforms, each equipped with a 500 HP power pack, worked in unison to move the cryostat top lid...

Enthusiasm and dedication

The 18th edition of Open Doors Day took place on a sunny weekend in early April, to the satisfaction of approximately 700 visitors. A large team of volunteers facilitated the event, each one sharing his or her "piece" of...

Meeting ITER in Medellín, Colombia

What a setting for a conference! A sprawling expanse of green, the large botanical garden of Colombia's second biggest city Medellín provided the venue for the 12th World Conference of Science Journalists. About four...

European trainees get a taste of ITER

In order to grasp the reality of a project they will be working for from afar, 30 university graduates completing a 12-month traineeship at Fusion for Energy headquarters in Barcelona, Spain, recently spent two days at...

Convincing, but not real

DA VINCI'S IMPOSSIBLE "TOKAMAK DRAWING"

The exploration of the now-digitized Leonardo Da Vinci notebooks continues to amaze the worldwide scientific community. A few weeks ago, engineers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) analyzed a series of...

Yutaka Kamada, Deputy Director-General for Science and Technology

Yutaka Kamada, Science & Technology

In his late childhood and early teens, Yutaka Kamada developed two passions: one for growing cactus, the other for fusion energy. Half a century later, his cactus collection comprises 500 plants and Yutaka has been...

Correction coil feeder arriving

Yet another magnet feeder from China

This in-cryostat feeder will supply electrical power and cryogenic fluids to some of the top correction coils of the ITER machine.

Gyrotron test rig in India

India successfully demonstrates ITER power and pulse requirements

As a part of its in-kind commitments to the project, ITER India will deliver two radio-frequency-based power sources (or "gyrotrons") with state-of-the-art specifications (170 GHz, 1MW, up to 3600 s), as wells as four...

ITER construction site, March 2023

Bird's eye views, three years apart

Taken three years apart (February 2020/February 2023) these two aerial photographs provide a spectacular illustration of progress on the ITER construction site.

Lightning-power voltage

In January 2021, preparatory works began for the construction of two large buildings designed to accommodate a unique set of electrical equipment. A little more than two years later, the main features of the new...

Cryopump passes site acceptance tests

Cryopumps, which play an essential role in ITER, are not what one has in mind when picturing a pump. A conventional pump creates negative pressure to suck in fluids such as water or air. Cryopumps, on the other hand, are...

Korea and Europe enter partnership

The future of fusion rests on the availably of two hydrogen isotopes, deuterium (one proton, one neutron) and tritium (one proton, two neutrons). Extracting deuterium from water is a relatively simple and proven...

Preserving the view and the vacuum

Punctuating the inner surface of the vacuum vessel are many strategically placed windows that will be used by diagnostic systems to "observe" the plasma.

A community from 90 nations

A truly cosmopolitan community

Four times as large as the Vatican City State, but slightly smaller than the Principality of Monaco, the ITER international enclave covers 180 hectares, of which about half is occupied by buildings and infrastructure...
