The scientific exploitation of JT-60SA is ensured by the Experiment Team, https://www.jt60sa.org/wp/experiment-team/ ,formed by three experiment leaders, which will coordinate the experimental programme, and six Topical Groups that are responsible to coordinate different scientific topics. Recently, the Experiment Team Leaders and Topical Group Leaders have coordinated an effort to identify the main scientific topics to be developed in the initial experimental campaigns of JT-60SA, Operation-2 (OP2) and Operation-3 (OP3) with carbon PFC.

The JT-60SA Experiment Leaders,  are inviting for the participation in the experiment team. This call is addressed to master students, Ph.D. students and researchers belonging to European and Japanese scientific institutions involved in EURATOM or the Japanese fusion research programme and agreed collaborators.

The researchers in Japanese scientific institutions who collaborate in a framework with QST, e.g. “Tokamak Reactor Plasma Collaborative Research Programme” or Onsite laboratory of university can join. The researchers in European scientific institutions with a collaborative framework with EURATOM or with any other institution collaborating with EURATOM- such as EUROFusion- can apply.
