Abstract

A conceptual design study of a steady-state tokamak, JT-60 Super Upgrade, is being carried out. The capability of the present JT-60 facility will be fully utilized for this upgrade. The mission of JT-60SU is to establish integrated basis of physics and technology for steady-state tokamak reactors. In JT-60SU, steady-state physics will be evaluated in the intermediate parameter region between the present tokamaks and steady-state tokamak reactors. Technology development for long pulse operation and research for engineering safety will also be pursued
