Description

In the paper, we present and discuss the Budker Institute long term plans for laying the plasma physics database for an advanced fuel fusion reactor based on the axisymmetric linear magnetic trap. General approach to development of the reactor utilizes the idea of confinement of a plasma with utmost pressure value confined in the linear device with the multi-mirror end sections attached at both ends to suppress the axial plasma losses. To develop the required database a stepwise approach is applied, which suggests construction of the several experimental devices with successively increased plasma parameters, which incorporate the different constituents of the approach. Ultimately, after successful proves of the ideas in the experiments, a prototype of the reactor will be constructed in the Budker Institute.
