1. Physics of fusion power
Revision lecture
A.G. Peeters

2. Exam …………. Is on the written notes !! We will go over it very briefly
Then …. Questions

3. Fusion power generation
The exam is on physics questions, not the case for fusion or anything related
You can be asked to work out the amount of power generated given the numbers
Learn the bit on break even and ignition

4. Plasma physics
You will not be asked to derive the virial theorem, the screened potential or the flux conservation
BUT
You are expected to understand the concepts and are able to apply them
The force on the plasma plays a central role and you should study it carefully

5. Cylinder equilibrium Study chapter 3 well
Theta pinch – diamagnetic current – profiles
Z – pinch
Screw pinch – stability against the kink

6. Particle motion
You will not be asked to re-derive the drifts or conserved quantities
BUT
You are expected to know the drifts (YES the equations) as well as the conserved quantities
You are expected to know the physical meaning of the various drifts, and are expected to be able to apply this knowledge to discuss the dynamics

7. Tokamak
Study the whole of chapter 5 thoroughly
