  • Abstract
    The Compact Ignition Tokamak (CIT) is an experimental device that is expected to reach ignition. The CIT vacuum vessel is being designed for a base pressure of no greater than 10-7 torr and a temperature of 350°C. It must be capable of withstanding plasma disruptions and mechanical loads imposed by other components. The design status and salient features of the vacuum vessel and near-term plans for testing and prototype development, are described
