In a world increasingly facing new challenges at the forefront of plasma scientific research and technological innovation, CNR and ISTP pledge progress and achieve an impact in the integration of research into societal practices and policy
ISTP – CNR research activity is funded by the European Community and International Organizations to a large extent, by national and regional public bodies and industry.
Preliminary study to establish the optimal heating configuration and plasma operating conditions for an Electron Cyclotron Heating and Current Drive system for the prototype nuclear fusion compact power plant STEP (Spherical Tokamak for Energy Production) proposed by UKAEA.
Electron Cyclotron (EC) Current Drive physics analysis for the EC and Electron Bernstein (EB) waves heating based prototype nuclear fusion compact power plant STEP (Spherical Tokamak for Energy Production), proposed by the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) to demonstrate net gain electric energy production.
