World survey of major facilities in controlled fusion research

This is a third, updated and revised, edition of the ''World Survey of Major Facilities in Controlled Nuclear Fusion Research'', published as a special supplement to Nuclear Fusion. The purpose of this survey is to provide a broad and current outline of the research in controlled thermonuclear fusion. The scope of this third edition has been expanded to include fusion reactor design groups, fusion data centres, and more information on laser- and electron-beam fusion programmes. Only information received officially from contributing countries in response to a questionnaire has been considered for publication. All contributions have been brought up to date, the information being as correct as possible up to June 1976. The Personnel Index, a new feature of this supplement, lists about 3500 names of researchers and is intended as a ''Who's Who'' in nuclear fusion
