International Conference on
DIAGNOSTICS FOR FUSION REACTORS: THE BURNING PLASMA ERA
Villa Monastero, Varenna, Italy
September 1 - 5, 2025
**********************************************************
The Conference strongly encourages participation of young scientists.
The conference will focus on diagnostics systems, related technologies, and control systems of ITER and magnetically confined DT reactors aimed at the production of fusion power (BEST, SPARC, DEMO, ARC..) by magnetic confinement. The status of private fusion company projects aiming at achieving burning plasma in the next years will be addressed. New diagnostics developed as part of the worldwide effort towards fusion energy production are included.
Specific topics covered:
a) Diagnostics and controls for reactors: machine protection, plasma scenarios, and burning plasma control (including JET experience and present machines)
b) Diagnostic system solutions and technologies adopted in DT reactors (ITER, DEMO, BEST,SPARC,..)
c) Diagnostics development within the worldwide magnetic fusion programme and applicable to burning plasmas
d) New concepts of diagnostics for fusion reactors
e) State of progress of private funded fusion companies aiming at achieving burning plasmas.
The programme will include invited oral presentations and contributed short presentations. Contributors of short orals are also invited to present their work in a poster for the poster sessions.
The conference is organized on-site.
The conference strongly encourages the participation of young scientists.
With the contribution of:
Proceedings will be published following a process of peer review, in the proceedings section of JINST, Journal of Instrumentation.
