STOR-M
STOR-M aims to demonstrate the feasibility of quasi steady state tokamak reactors, study the compact torus injection (a method of fuelling the core of tokamak fusion reactors), as well as develop novel far infrared lasers-based diagnostics for ITER and research on plasma assisted material synthesis and processing.
