Association Euratom - DTU, Technical University of Denmark, Department of Physics - Annual Progress Report 2011

max. 2000 char.): The programme of the Research Unit of the Fusion Association Euratom – DTU, Technical University of Denmark (until 31-122011: Association Euratom – Risø DTU) covers work in fusion plasma physics and in fusion technology. The fusion plasma physics research focuses on turbulence and transport, and its interaction with the plasma equilibrium and particles. The effort includes both first principles based modelling, and experimental observations of turbulence and of fast ion dynamics by collective Thomson scattering. Within fusion technology there are activities related to development of high temperature superconductors. Other activities are system analysis, initiative to involve Danish industry in ITER contracts and public information. A summary is presented of the results obtained in the Research Unit during 2011.
