International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (Project). Controlled fusion — International cooperation. Tokamaks — International cooperation. I International Atomic Energy Agency IAEAL 12–00774 FOREWORD Recreating the energy production process of the Sun — nuclear fusion — on Earth in a controlled fashion is one of the greatest challenges of this century If achieved at affordable costs, energy supply security would be greatly enhanced and environmental degradation from fossil fuels greatly diminished Fusion Physics describes the last fifty years or so of physics and research in innovative technologies to achieve controlled thermonuclear fusion for energy production The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has been involved since its establishment in 1957 in fusion research It has been the driving force behind the biennial conferences on Plasma Physics and Controlled Thermonuclear Fusion, today known as the Fusion Energy Conference Hosted by several Member States, this biennial conference provides a global forum for exchange of the latest achievements in fusion research against the backdrop of the requirements for a net energy producing fusion device and, eventually, a fusion power plant The scientific and technological knowledge compiled during this series of conferences, as well as by the IAEA Nuclear Fusion journal, is immense and will surely continue to grow in the future It has led to the establishment of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), which represents the biggest experiment in energy production ever envisaged by humankind The IAEA also would like to thank the editors of the book, M Kikuchi, K. Lackner and Minh Quang Tran, for preparing this comprehensive manuscript on fusion, including magnetic and inertial fusion concepts They have selected a prominent group of contributors, many of whom have provided seminal scientific contributions to important developments in the field The IAEA also conveys its gratitude to the authors for their long standing cooperation Their work is highly appreciated, and this present compendium will help to raise awareness of the opportunities offered by fusion and the path towards a demonstration fusion power plant PREFACE In 1958, during the second Conference on Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy in Geneva, nuclear fusion research was declassified At this time the basis of nuclear fusion science and technology was confined to a few books and monographs written by ‘pioneers’ After this event, the tradition to periodically exchange the latest discoveries in fusion research development was established by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) through its series of Fusion Energy Conferences (IAEA FECs) It was natural that in 2008 the 22nd IAEA FEC came back to the same location in Geneva, the Palais des Nations, to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the declassification The progress over the past half century has been immense We are now in the building phase of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) with the prospect of having 500 MW of fusion power in the second half of the 2020s and starting studies for the step beyond ITER, a demonstration reactor (usually referred to as the DEMO power plant) A new generation of scientists and engineers is needed to build and exploit ITER and accompanying fusion devices, and to prepare the next step beyond ITER Master and PhD programmes have been set up in many universities worldwide to train what is usually referred to as the “ITER Generation of Scientists” Compared to 1958, the growth of the field of nuclear fusion has led to a multiplicity of specialized subfields, each having its own textbooks The occasion of the 2008 IAEA FEC prompted us to propose to the IAEA International Fusion Research Council (IFRC) to sponsor a tutorial book for post-graduate students Our aim is to provide an introduction to nuclear fusion, its status and perspectives Specialized chapters are devoted to the main concepts under R&D (magnetic and inertial conferment) together with the physics as well as the technology basis With the strong support and under the guidance of the IFRC, we have invited international experts to contribute to the project Our vision of the book was shared by all contacted colleagues, who enthusiastically accepted this difficult tutorial task It is our hope that the material presented will allow post-graduate level students to become familiar with the topics of their studies More advanced researchers will also find materials on topics adjacent to their field of specialization The progress in nuclear fusion research is such that it has become impossible to cover in detail all the key issues: this book is not intended to replace specialized monographs or review articles The book starts with an introduction to the case for the development of fusion as an energy source, followed by chapters on the physics of confinement, equilibrium and stability of tokamaks Diagnostics, heating and current drive by neutral beams and radiofrequency waves, and plasma–wall interactions are described in detail While the tokamak is currently the leading concept for the realization of nuclear fusion, it is important to note that other concepts (helical confinement concepts and, in a broader sense, other magnetic configurations) have also received wide interest worldwide Last but not least, inertial confinement fusion is one of the important lines of research, which naturally finds its place in the book The later part of the book is oriented towards ITER and fusion technology The realization of this book would not have been possible without the enthusiastic commitment of all authors, who took upon themselves the task of sharing their vast knowledge with the ITER generation in parallel with their research duties We would like to wholeheartedly thank them for their dedication Our responsibility has also included careful reading of the contributed manuscripts That was done with the help of a few colleagues, whose contribution is gratefully acknowledged Last but not least, our appreciation also goes to the IAEA and its staff, which provided an unfailing support and encouragement We would like to particularly thank G. Mank, R. Kamendje, R. Kaiser and T. Desai, whose support throughout this endeavour has rendered the publication of this volume possible We also would like to acknowledge the very useful contribution of B.
