General Atomics marks completion of ITER’s superconducting fusion magnet
General Atomics last week celebrated the completion of the central solenoid modules for the ITER reactor being built in southern France. Designed to demonstrate the scientific and technological feasibility of fusion power, the ITER tokamak will be the world’s largest experimental fusion facility.

A new technique has been employed to generate Legendre components of group-to-group neutron scattering cross-section matrices for two-body interactions. This semianalytic procedure, which treats the rapidly fluctuating cross-section behavior analytically, has been incorporated in the MINX processor, a code for the Multigroup Interpretation of Nuclear X-sections. The algorithm requires only a minimum of numerical approximations and uses recursive formulas well suited to performing the required integrations. A flexible energy integration mesh is employed so that localized resonance phenomena may be adequately represented.
