The TJ-I tokamak was the first magnetic confinement device at [[CIEMAT]] (then JEN). | The TJ-I tokamak was the first magnetic confinement device at [[CIEMAT]] (then JEN). | ||
It started operation in 1983. | It started operation in 1983, and has been operational until 1995. Ohmic heating was used. | ||
This device has been the subject of many research programmes dedicated to the study of physical processes in tokamak plasmas: | |||
* basic confinement studies (transport, electric fields, isotope effect) | |||
* edge physics | |||
* turbulence studies (driving mechanisms, turbulent transport) | |||
* plasma-wall interaction (carbonization, boronization) | |||
* diagnostic development (microwave reflectometry, radiation detectors, probes, atomic beams,...) | |||
