Tolok was given the leadership responsibility for the development of the stellarator line at KIPT, carrying out the corresponding theoretical and experimental program. |
Research is being carried out on several types of stellarator differing mainly in the periodicity of the toroidal and poloidal components of their magnetic field. |
The design techniques and physics analysis of modern stellarator configurations for magnetic fusion research rely heavily on high performance computing and simulation. |
This does not mean that basic research and research in general should not be pursued in areas other than implementing ITER, as you rightly stressed, for example on JET and other types of tokamak, such as the stellarator. |
The stellarator and RFP are much like the tokamak. |
Hence the interest in another reactor design, the stellarator, a rival to the tokamak which fell behind in the 1960s but which is now making a comeback. Twist and shoutA stellarator is a tokamak with twists in it. |
