Report
Present status of the Large Helical Device project
Description
National Institute for Fusion Science is a new large fusion research institute in Japan. It is responsible for joint university researches of plasma physics and fusion technology. The major experimental facility of the institute is Large Helical Device (LHD) which is now in the phase of practical design. This report describes the design study of the Large Helical Device. Our goal is the demonstration of high energy and high β-bar plasma production in the helical device, which is a necessary step toward the realization of the helical reactor system. (author)
