Integrated Approach to Dense Magnetized Plasmas Applications in Nuclear Fusion Technology

This publication presents the results of an IAEA coordinated research project (CRP) on dense magnetized plasma (DMP) applications in nuclear fusion technology. DMP devices are used in the testing of fusion relevant materials, diagnostics development and calibration and in developing technologies and scaling to conceptual principles of larger devices. The specific research objectives of this CRP were to support mainstream fusion research and the development of dense magnetized plasma technology. The resulting publication is a compilation of the individual reports submitted by the 12 CRP participants, describing the research work undertaken as well as further expected, important spin-off applications of DMP devices.
