TJ-II stellarator
The main goal of the plasma science branch of the LNF is the development of the “stellarator” concept. This has been tackled through the scientific exploitation of the TJ-II stellarator device, located at Ciemat, within the framework of the European Fusion Program.

In the field of fusion technology,
Scientific and technical research at the LNF, on a European and international level, is based on two main activities: on the one hand, the study of high temperature confined plasmas in the TJ-II stellarator and other international devices, and on the other, the development of technology needed to construct and operate fusion reactors: materials, tritium production, energy extraction, etc. The plasma research activities are organized in four main technical units: TJ-II Operations and Experimental Physics Divisions, and Engineering and Plasma Theory units. The Fusion Technology Division, supported by the Engineering unit mentioned above, carries out the technology activity.
Moreover, the LNF leads the Spanish participation in the construction of ITER and the European fusion programme.

As regards the high temperature plasma research, the main facility is the TJ-II stellarator (major radius 1.5 m, minor radius 0.2 m, magnetic field 1 T, plasma volume 1 m3) and its associated systems:
-ECRH (Electron Cyclotron Resonance Heating) system
