首先，我要祝贺所有为《ITER物理基础进展》（PIPB）的出版做出贡献的人，并对许多参与其中的科学家的辛勤工作和承诺表示深深的感谢。随着2006年11月ITER联合实施协议的签署，ITER成员已经建立了项目建设的框架，ITER组织已经开始在Cadarache工作。PIPB所涵盖的燃烧等离子体实验物理基础的最新进展综述将是本项目的宝贵资源，特别是对当前的设计综述。ITER的设计来源于对托卡马克等离子体特性的实验、建模和理论工作，特别是对燃烧等离子体物理的研究所建立的物理基础。1999年出版的“ITER物理基础”（IPB）一直是ITER设计投影方法的参考，但IPB也强调了需要解决的几个关键问题，以提供ITER运行的坚实基础。在此期间，ITER参与小组的科学家们集中解决了这些问题。国际托卡马克物理活动（ITPA）为参与这些研究的科学家提供了一个极好的论坛，将他们的工作集中在ITER的高优先级物理问题上。在IPB确定的许多问题上取得了重大进展，这一进展在PIPB中得到了深入讨论。在这方面，PIPB的出版象征着等离子体物理界对ITER项目成功的强烈兴趣和热情，我们都认为这是21世纪最伟大的科学挑战之一。我谨对ITPA协调委员会成员的工作表示感谢，他们的名单如下。他们对拟订PIPB的支持和鼓励对其完成至关重要。我很高兴看到在从事磁聚变研究的科学家之间开展了广泛的合作、良好的工作关系和自由的意见交流，我特别要感谢他们在研究中赋予ITER的重要性。这种密切的合作和自由讨论的精神对ITER的成功至关重要。最后，PIPB确定了在燃烧等离子体性能预测到ITER规模和燃烧等离子体控制方面仍然存在的问题。因此，需要继续进行研发，以减少与这些问题相关的不确定性，并确保ITER的有效运行和利用。重要的是，国际核聚变界在未来保持高水平的合作，以解决这些问题，并为ITER的运行准备物理基础。ITPA协调委员会R.

I would firstly like to congratulate all who have contributed to the preparation of the `Progress in the ITER Physics Basis' (PIPB) on its publication and express my deep appreciation of the hard work and commitment of the many scientists involved. With the signing of the ITER Joint Implementing Agreement in November 2006, the ITER Members have now established the framework for construction of the project, and the ITER Organization has begun work at Cadarache. The review of recent progress in the physics basis for burning plasma experiments encompassed by the PIPB will be a valuable resource for the project and, in particular, for the current Design Review. The ITER design has been derived from a physics basis developed through experimental, modelling and theoretical work on the properties of tokamak plasmas and, in particular, on studies of burning plasma physics. The `ITER Physics Basis' (IPB), published in 1999, has been the reference for the projection methodologies for the design of ITER, but the IPB also highlighted several key issues which needed to be resolved to provide a robust basis for ITER operation. In the intervening period scientists of the ITER Participant Teams have addressed these issues intensively. The International Tokamak Physics Activity (ITPA) has provided an excellent forum for scientists involved in these studies, focusing their work on the high priority physics issues for ITER. Significant progress has been made in many of the issues identified in the IPB and this progress is discussed in depth in the PIPB. In this respect, the publication of the PIPB symbolizes the strong interest and enthusiasm of the plasma physics community for the success of the ITER project, which we all recognize as one of the great scientific challenges of the 21st century. I wish to emphasize my appreciation of the work of the ITPA Coordinating Committee members, who are listed below. Their support and encouragement for the preparation of the PIPB were fundamental to its completion. I am pleased to witness the extensive collaborations, the excellent working relationships and the free exchange of views that have been developed among scientists working on magnetic fusion, and I would particularly like to acknowledge the importance which they assign to ITER in their research. This close collaboration and the spirit of free discussion will be essential to the success of ITER. Finally, the PIPB identifies issues which remain in the projection of burning plasma performance to the ITER scale and in the control of burning plasmas. Continued R&D is therefore called for to reduce the uncertainties associated with these issues and to ensure the efficient operation and exploitation of ITER. It is important that the international fusion community maintains a high level of collaboration in the future to address these issues and to prepare the physics basis for ITER operation.
