A constant health check

ITER, as the first reactor-scale fusion device, will help the world understand more about the necessary tradeoff between maximal performance and equipment lifetime. A new suite of software, the tokamak systems monitor...

A place to meet

Scientific cooperation is not about exchanging data, ideas and theories only. It builds on basic human dynamics, personal interactions, arguments, jokes, smiles and the whole spectrum of emotions that is common to the...

A first glimpse at the colossus

Imagine a 600-tonne umbrella, with a central shaft more than 4 metres in diameter and ribs as thick as the girders of a travelling crane—this is what the central column and the nine radial beams of the in-pit assembly...

Prepping the first coil pair

Since their delivery to ITER, in April and July of last year, toroidal field coils #12 and #13 from Japan have been slowly and steadily gaining weight. As the 320-tonne components are prepped for pre-assembly, close to...

A vision and a plan

For any Member to take full advantage of ITER's first-of-a-kind science and engineering, their ITER-related activities must be coupled with a domestic fusion R&D program. The latest Member to take this step forward is...

The long path to discovery

A little more than one century ago, in 1919, a nagging question received the beginning of an answer. Almost simultaneously, two eminent scientists, Jean Perrin (1870-1942) in France and Arthur Eddington (1882-1944) in...

Innovation gets the job done

US ITER is procuring the elements of the cage-like support structure and specialized tooling that will be required during the assembly of the central solenoid at ITER. During a challenging year, keeping to the...

Collaboration helps to keep ITER on solid ground

At ITER, system designers have to ensure that their equipment will withstand earthquakes, large and small.

Busy month ahead

This year at ITER, the month of March will not only mark the coming of spring. It will also set into motion a series of spectacular operations in the assembly theatre—a space that extends from the entrance of the...

Last phase for Europe's sector #5

The first European vacuum vessel sector is entering an important and critical phase: the assembly and welding of four segments into the D-shaped sector. Under the supervision of the European Domestic Agency, the AMW...

Second coil comes out of the cold

A second ring-shaped poloidal field coil has successfully passed all thermal testing.

Practising the embrace

In the ITER Assembly Hall, fitting tests are underway on two outboard thermal shield panels.

This circle is for the ring

Another concentric circle has been drawn at the bottom of the machine assembly pit, formed by the temporary supports recently installed for poloidal field coil #6.

Manufacturing kicks off in Europe

For one of the most demanding technological components of the ITER machine—the first wall of the blanket—the European Domestic Agency Fusion for Energy made the decision early on to involve different suppliers in a...

Top lid enters the stage

In this vast workshop over the past five years, the different sections of the ITER cryostat have been assembled and welded under India's responsibility. The base section, followed by the lower and upper cylinders, have...

Fly over and peek inside

A new tool takes us on a tour of the ITER worksite from the air, identifying the many buildings and technical areas that make up the scientific installation.

Multi-lane thruways into the machine

The ITER superconducting coils thrive on a simple diet of electrical power and cooling fluids. The industrial installation on site is scaled to provide both, but the challenge is in the delivery. How do you "feed" 10,000...

Under scrutinizing eyes

While challenging to build, a system that provides 2D and 3D images of the ITER in-vessel components hours after a plasma shot makes operating fusion devices safer and easier.

Marvels of the subterranean world

The amount of power that must be delivered to the transformers, rectifiers, converters and other exotic devices that will feed DC current to the magnets and other "ITER specific" systems is equivalent to the production...

Qualification milestone in Europe

A qualification program is underway in Europe to ensure the performance and manufacturability of the divertor inner vertical target—a plasma-facing component located at the intersection of magnetic field lines at the...
