An ion source for neutral particle heating is being developed at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics, which is intended to heat the plasma of the world’s largest fusion experiment ITER to many millions of degrees Celsius in the future. Researchers have now been able to generate the ion current densities required for ITER Neutral Beam Injector in the ELISE experimental testing facilityfor the first time.
In an initial joint project, the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) will develop concepts for future fusion power plants with the company Proxima Fusion.
