Enabling technologies include such things as:
- Magnets and magnet materials for LTSC, HTSC including HFSC
- RF heating systems including ICH, ECH, LHCD, helicon and gyrotron sources
- Neutral Beam Heating, both positive and negative ion beam
- Pellet fueling, pumping and disruption mitigation
- Advanced plasma facing components (PFCs) for first wall and divertor applications
- Advanced In-vessel components (IVCs) like faraday shields and antenna guard armor
- Advanced divertor configurations and ELM coils
- Remote handling and RAMI
- Blanket and shielding evaluations, neutronics and volumetric heating
- Tritium processing and control
- Vacuum vessel bake-out and wall conditioning
This is not meant to be an all-inclusive list. Other critical technologies for long-pulse fusion machines will also be considered.
