CAS is to set up an international experimental zone for
thermonuclear fusion
China, November 29: The Institute of Plasma
Physics (ASIPP) under the CAS Hefei Institutes of Physical Sciences, a Chinese
partner in the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) Program,
is going to establish an international experimental zone for thermonuclear
fusion up to 13 hectares. At present the work on land acquisition has been
completed.
As one of the seven collaborators of ITER, China will make 10 percent of the
total investment of 4.6 billion euros, which could be fulfilled by providing
such things as related parts and components needed for the reactor.
ASIPP will undertake a considerable amount of the task on the component research
and development, concerning such technologies as superconducting, high-capacity
power supply, and remote sensing. Many of them are core projects of ITER
program. The experimental zone will be the site of research and testing as well
as a base for international exchanges of thermonuclear fusion research.

"Superconductor Week
has a three-fold
mission:
to advance the goals of our readers
by a critical
perspective on low- and high- Tc superconductors and cryogenics; to promote the
industry by spreading information and insight to the broadest possible audience;
and to provide
a platform for the free exchange of ideas and news within the
superconductivity community."
