What is Preliminary analysis of the external matching unit for the ICRH system for FAST about?

The Fusion Advanced Studies Torus (FAST) is a new tokamak machine proposed by the Italian Fusion Association as a Satellite Tokamak for accompanying the ITER programme. A relevant objective of FAST is to study burning plasma issues by simulating the alpha particle dynamics by means of fast ions produced by acceleration of a minority species using an Ion Cyclotron Resonance Heating (ICRH) system. A maximum coupled power of 30 MW is foreseen in the 60-90 MHz frequency range. The load tolerant External Conjugate-T (ECT) concept is being studied to match the low impedance of the launcher to the feeding coaxial cables (Z 0 = 30 ). A preliminary design of the external tuning and matching system has been made and their simulation results are given in the paper.

Who reads Preliminary analysis of the external matching unit for the ICRH system for FAST?

It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Engineering.
