只提供摘要形式。ITER(国际实验热核反应堆)的物理研究将从氢实验开始,以解决约束、操作极限、分流器性能、破坏行为、加热和电流驱动效率等问题。D和3He实验将测试射频加热系统,模拟α粒子效应,并进一步解决氢操作中出现的相同问题,并测试D/T操作中预期使用的诊断系统。D或3He操作将提供适度的激活水平,因此访问将受到限制。然后,实验将进行D/T。将在逐渐升高的Q水平下进行实验,直到获得点燃操作。目标是通过感应操作研究长脉冲(大于或等于200秒)点燃的等离子体。此外,还将研究等离子体和分流器在更高电流驱动水平下的性能。在物理研究的最后阶段,目标将是确定一种长脉冲(1000秒到稳态)等离子体操作模式,该模式可以在技术阶段可靠地运行,以产生~1000兆瓦或更高的聚变功率,并且干扰最小
Summary form only given. The physics studies for ITER (International Experimental Thermonuclear Reactor) will begin with experiments in hydrogen to address questions of confinement, operational limits, divertor performance, disruption behavior, heating, and current drive efficiency. Experiments with D and 3He will be done to test the RF heating systems, simulate alpha particle effects, and further address the same issues raised during hydrogen operation, and to test the diagnostic systems expected to be used during D/T operation. D or 3He operation will provide moderate levels of activation so that access will be limited. Experiments will then proceed with D/T. Experiments at progressively higher levels of Q will be performed, until ignited operation is obtained. The goal is to study long-pulse (⩾200-s) ignited plasmas with inductive operation. In addition, the plasma and divertor performance with progressively higher levels of current drive will be studied. The goal during the final portion of physics studies will be to identify a long-pulse (1000 s to steady state) mode of plasma operation which can be run reliably during the technology phase to produce a fusion power of ~1000 MW or more with a minimum of disruptions
