Step inside JT-60SA – the most powerful tokamak to date!

F4E has released a new video, offering an amazing tour inside JT-60SA, the biggest fusion device to date operating with powerful superconducting magnets.

For the first time ever, we go inside its torus, visit the workshops where some of the components are being assembled, and join the teams in the control room where plasma operations are studied.

Sam Davis, JT-60SA Project Leader, offers a fascinating guided tour discussing his professional journey and enthusiasm to be part of the fusion community.

JT-60SA results from an international scientific agreement, known as the Broader Approach, signed between Europe and Japan.

The device is at the seat of the National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST), Naka, Japan.
