Abstract
The paper describes the physics background and the design of a compact ignition and burn control experiment (ZEPHYR). It was optimized with respect to magnetic field energy and costs on the basis of a cryogenically cooled normal conducting magnet. Ohmic heating, neutral injection and adiabatic compression were chosen to produce the required temperature. Ignition and controlled thermonuclear burn for about ten energy confinement times were foreseen
