Abstract

International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) Project whose main goal is to demonstrate the scientific and technological feasibility of fusion energy for peaceful purposes; ITER will study burning plasmas (i.e., plasmas where heating is provided mainly by the alpha particles created from fusion reactions) and will also be the first machine incorporating most of the technologies crucial for the preparation of a future fusion reactor (e.g., plasma facing components, tritium management, robotics, tests of breeding blankets). Joint European Torus (JET) Flagship of the European Community Fusion Program; JET is the largest and most powerful fusion experiment in the world. keV Abbreviation for kiloelectronvolt; in nuclear physics, energy is often expressed in electronvolts and multiples thereof; as a result of popular misuse of language, temperature is sometimes also indicated in kiloelectronvolts.
