Magnetics diagnostics on tokamaks (e.g., ITER) provide local measurements of the magnetic field and large area measurements of magnetic flux close to the surface of the plasma. Combinations of these measurements are processed to determine a variety of plasma parameters, such as its position, shape or the electrical current it carries, in both static and a range of dynamic conditions. Some of the plasma parameters are determined in real time for plasma control applications while others are determined off line for physics studies.

The scope of the contract includes the development and supply of software algorithms for analysis of data from the ITER magnetics diagnostic; development of plans for testing of the final implementation of these algorithms and plans for commissioning of the installed ITER magnetics diagnostic. Please refer to technical specification (Annex B) for further details.
