Controlling a new plasma regime

M. Lennholm,
S. Aleiferis,
S. Bakes
et al.

Abstract: Success of the UK’s Spherical Tokamak for Energy Production (STEP) programme requires a robust plasma control system. This system has to guide the plasma from initiation to the burning phase, maintain it there, produce the desired fusion power for the desired duration and then terminate the plasma safely. This has to be done in a challenging environment with limited sensors and without overloading plasma-facing components. The plasma parameters and the operational regime in the STEP prototype will be very diff… Show more
