From page 22...
... Progress has been made in the development of new diagnostics of plasma behavior, and these diagnostics have, in turn, led to a deeper understanding of the behavior of fusion plasmas. New methods have been developed to heat fusion plasmas and to drive electrical currents in these plasmas noninductively using intense neutral beams and radio-frequency electromagnetic waves.
From page 23...
... on fusion plasmas, reactor-sized devices, such as the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor or the Joint European Torus, are required. Thus, a coordinated program of fusion plasma research will require a range of devices and programs, from small, basic experiments that isolate and address fundamental questions in plasma science to experiments on the largest fusion devices.
