For every fusion facility around the world, it is striving for steady state fusion reaction with operation period as long as possible. However, it is not easy. Many challenges stand in the way. Reliable divertor scenario with high power handling capability is key among that.
Severe irradiation environment would bring damage to the microstructure of the materials and affect the stable operation and tritium recovery of fusion reactor. Therefore, the efficient tritium production from tritium breeding materials is the guarantee for the realization of tritium self-suffici...
ITER, one of the most ambitious energy projects in the world today, had its the first correction coil BCC/4 lowered into place on Oct.21.
Recently, a research team identified two possible magnetic interaction scenarios in Sr2IrO4, which marked a new progress in the study of the magnetic properties in this unique 5d correlated system. The main team members are Dr. ZHANG Guoren from Institute of solid State Physics (ISSP), Hefei In...
Poloidal field coil #5 (PF5), 17 metres in diameter and close to 350 tonnes, was successfully installed on Sept. 16 on the ITER construction site. According to the TAC1 mission contract with ITER, Institute of Plasma Physics(ASIPP), HFIPS should ensure PF5 coil in the right place of Tokamak pit.
