A stowaway on board toroidal field coil #8

Hidden inside the steel case of the most recent toroidal field coil delivered to ITER—TF8, from Japan—is a unique and critical diagnostic device. Named after the German physicist Walter Rogowski, the continuous external...

A 90° tilt in mid-air

Ever since ITER entered the machine assembly phase, some ten months ago, we have been treated to a few spectacular lifting operations. In May 2020, we watched the cryostat base hover overhead like a flying saucer. In...

The quiet heroics behind time synchronization

ITER will rely on hundreds of computers, ranging from diagnostics and actuators to servers running physics models or providing a human interface to operators in the control room. All of these computers will need to be...

4.8 km of cryolines pass leak test

Originating in the cryoplant, kilometres of sophisticated cryolines deliver cooling fluids to some essential elements of the ITER machine—the superconducting magnets, the cryopumps and the different parts of the thermal...

PF1: impregnation stage completed

Russian team completes vacuum pressure impregnation

ITER's smallest poloidal field magnet—PF1—has successfully completed one of the final stages of production, resin impregnation, at the Sredne-Nevsky Shipyard in Saint Petersburg.

Time-lapsing through machine assembly

On 26-27 May 2020, as the 1,250-tonne cryostat base was installed at the bottom of the assembly pit, a new and decisive chapter opened in the history of ITER.

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...

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...

Preparing to upend sector #6

Lift and tilt

The first ITER vacuum vessel sector—as tall as a telephone pole and as heavy as 300 small cars—will soon be suspended several metres above the floor of the Assembly Hall and slowly "upended" mid-air from horizontal to...

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...

Jean Perrin et l’énigme de l’énergie solaire

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...

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...

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...

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...

Tokamak Complex finite element model

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 March

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...

Final machining of sector #5 segment

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.

Wings rotate components inward

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.
