  • Plasma-Wall Interaction (PWI)

    The field of plasma-wall interaction (PWI) comprises all processes involved in the exchange of mass and energy between plasma and the surrounding wall materials.

  • Radio Frequency Heating and Current Drive

    The heating and current drive group conducts research on propagation and absorption of electromagnetic waves in the plasma. The research is focused on theory and modelling, but we also partake in experiments in the European fusion devices. The research group is led by Associate Professor Thomas Johnson.

  • Time-Spectral Modelling in Fusion

    Timely development of sustainable fusion power critically depends on powerful theoretical and computational approaches for understanding and prediction. Time-spectral methods offer possibilities for efficient solution of problems in plasma equilibrium, stability and transport. The research group is led by Professor Jan Scheffel.

  • Fusion Plasma Device EXTRAP T2R

    The EXTRAP T2R device produces a high energy density ionized gas – plasma – utilizing the method of magnetic confinement. The plasma has multiple uses, such as research on magnetic confinement fusion, materials research, plasma waste treatment, and various plasma applications.

  • Plasma Control

    We proudly house a magnetic confinement fusion device named EXTRAP T2R equipped with a digital feedback control system. The experimental research on EXTRAP T2R is led by Professor Per Brunsell.

  • Pedestal Physics

    The pedestal physics group at the Division for Fusion Plasma Physics is led by Associate Professor Lorenzo Frassinetti. Research activities include experimental work on several major European tokamaks as well as modelling work.
