Abstract The China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor (CFETR) is the next step in China's
roadmap for magnetic confinement fusion development. It aims to bridge the gap between …

A small relaxation of the axisymmetric magnetic field of a tokamak into a non-axisymmetric
three-dimensional (3D) configuration can be effective to control magnetohydrodynamic …

The extensive design effort for KSTAR has been focused on two major aspects of the KSTAR
project mission-steady-state-operation capability and advanced tokamak physics. The …
