New breakthroughs have been made in the superconducting magnets used in two nuclear fusion reactors in China.

Jinse Finance reported that on June 27, according to CCTV, the “artificial sun” project at the Institute of Plasma Physics, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has made the latest progress today. Two independently developed nuclear fusion reactor facilities in China have completed technical acceptance and full operating-condition parameter testing for the superconducting magnets they use, respectively. Among them, the largest superconducting component of the national major science and technology infrastructure “Comprehensive Research Facility for Key Systems of the Fusion Reactor Host”—the circumferential field magnet (ring-shaped field magnet)—has completed the final fabrication process and passed expert technical acceptance. In Hefei Future Science City, adjacent to the “Comprehensive Research Facility for Key Systems of the Fusion Reactor Host,” another major nuclear fusion scientific device, the Compact Fusion Energy Experimental Device, has also made important progress. The high-temperature superconducting center solenoid coil magnet of this device completed full operating-condition parameter testing today, and its core performance has reached internationally leading standards.
