JT-60SA, the world's largest tokamak, has set a new Guinness World Record for plasma volume, reaching 160 cubic meters.
JT-60SA uses extremely powerful magnets cooled to nearly -452 degrees Fahrenheit to hold plasma that reaches 212 million degrees Fahrenheit.
A tokamak device, jointly developed by Japan and Europe, has achieved a plasma volume of 160 cubic meters. The achievement has been officially certified by Guinness World Records. Superconducting plasma experimental device JT-60SA, also known as the world’s largest tokamak, achieved this feat.A detailed examination of the experimental results confirmed that a plasma volume of 160 cubic meters had been achieved, far exceeding the previous record of 100 cubic meters achieved by other previous devices, according to Japan’s National Institutes for Quantum and Science and Technology .
In addition, the plasma control method and the result can contribute to the control of larger plasmas planned for ITER and DEMO reactors. DEMO will be developed based on the results of JT-60SA and ITER and is a device to demonstrate the power generation and economic efficiency of fusion energy. It’s claimed that the JT-60SA addresses the main aspects of fusion research, from plasma physics to engineering, with special attention to their combination into tokamak operation. Professional success in fusion research is often not only based on excellence in specific subjects but also on a broad basis of knowledge, allowing contributions to both scientific exploitation and realization of fusion experiments.
