Summary

Nishimura, Arata*; Okuno, Kiyoshi

This paper summarizes the results obtained in the development of materials that compose superconducting magnets for fusion devices. The materials include superconductor, insulators and cryogenic steels. These relate to not only superconducting technology, but also mechanical engineering, material science, neutron engineering and plasma physics. The integration of expertise in these research fields is necessary and important to develop design of fusion devices and to perform development work.
