Status and Prospects of Nuclear Fusion Using Magnetic Confinement — •Hartmut Zohm — Max-Planck-Institut fuer Plasmaphysik, 85748 Garching

Studies of magnetically confined plasmas for nuclear fusion have made considerable progress in both fundamental understanding and development of technical solutions over the recent years. The talk will review the status and then discuss how a roadmap based on the ITER experiment, presently under construction in Cadarache, France, and a successor, called DEMO, aims at developing fusion as an energy source. The German Fusion Programme at FZJ, IPP and KIT plays a major role in the EU and worldwide, and the specific contributions in plasma physics and fusion technology will be highlighted. In particular, the German Programme develops both the tokamak and stellarator line of magnetic confinement and special emphasis will be given to the advantages arising from this unique strategy.
