Nuclear fusion is considered a next-generation technology that will enable sustainable
energy supply, especially since its control is extremely difficult, requiring real-time control of
complex plasma behavior and efficient energy extraction.
We are tackling various technical issues for the practical application of fusion energy by
utilizing information technology and control theory to realize stable and efficient generation
and control of fusion energy. Advanced experiments and research on long plasma duration,
highly efficient plasma confinement, and suppression of plasma instabilities are conducted
using QUEST, the largest spherical tokamak device in Asia, located at the Chikushi
Campus.
Our laboratory cooperates with the Fusion Plasma Physics and Control Engineering (Ido
and Kinoshita), Fusion Plasma Science and Technology (Hanada and Onchi), and
Advanced Plasma Science and Engineering (Idei and Ikezoe) laboratories to promote
education and research.
●Development of plasma control technology using machine learning
●Study on generation and maintenance of divertor plasmas
●Numerical Predictive Modeling of Plasmas for Prediction and Optimization
●Research on real-time processing with sensor technology and data collection
●Development of robust feedback control system to suppress instability
