The recent results of JT-60, such as the long discharge with the high normalized beta of 2.3 and the pulse length of 22.3 s which was 13 times longer than the current profile relaxation, and the observation of the increase of D
emission and electron density as results of wall saturation will be reviewed. Additionally, the motivation and the design work will be reviewd on an on-going recent project of the ferritic insertion for the reduction of the toroidal field ripple. The pioneering works of JFT-2M in the ferritic insertion will be also reported.

In the first case, ferritic steel was installed between toroidal field coil and vacuum vessel, just under toroidal field coil, outside vacuum vessel. In the second one, ferritic steel was installed inside vacuum vessel covering almost whole inside wall. The ripple was successfully reduced in the both cases. The temperature increment on the first wall measured by infrared TV was also reduced. A new version of OFMC code was also developed to analyze fast ion behavior in the complex structure of the toroidal field. The TF ripple reduction with ferritic insert in JFT-2M is summarized in this article.

Studies on the loss of fusion produced alpha particles enhanced by toroidal field (TF) ripple in a low-aspect-ratio tokamak reactor (VECTOR) have been made by using an orbit-following Monte-Carlo code. The ripple loss is strongly reduced as the aspect ratio becomes low. Consequently, alpha particles are well confined in VECTOR. Thanks to the good confinement of alphas in a low-aspect-ratio system, the number of TF coils can be reduced to about 6, one half of the original VECTOR, by installing cooling systems near the outer edge of plasma and making allowances for about 30% increase in the bore diameter of TF coils.

The low activation ferritic steel is one of the candidate for structural material of a demo-reactor. However, it was afraid that the plasma confinement and stability might degrade due to the error field by the ferromagnetic property of the ferritic material. So, on JFT-2M tokamak Advanced Material Tokamak EXperiment program (AMTEX) has been carried out to investigate about the conformity with the plasma and ferritic steel. AMTEX was performed by introducing low activation ferritic plates (FPs) step by step. At the third stage, the FPs were installed to cover almost whole inside wall (FIW) of the vacuum vessel (VV) as a simulation of the blanket wall.In this experiment the accurate measurement of the distribution of the magnetic fields strength was required before and after the installation of the FIW.Therefore, the device for 3D-measurement of the magnetic field profile along the toroidal direction was developed.

Studies were made on ripple losses of fusion produced alpha particles in a tokamak reactor with a non-circular plasma cross-section by using an orbit-following Monte-Carlo code. A preliminary estimation of ripple loss of alpha particles in VECTOR, a compact tokamak type fusion reactor, with a negative magnetic shear was also made

The magnetic field structure has become the complex ripple strucuture such as non-periodic ripple structure in the toroidal direction and high Fourier-number ripple because of the existence of the port and the limitation of the periodic installation. Under such a complex ripple structure, we have performed the experiment to understand its effect on fast ions. To actively change the ripple structure, we have installed the additional ferritic steel plates (FPs). We also have compared the experiment result with the newly updated OFMC code which does not need the toroidal 16-folded symmetry. The experiment results were almost consistent with the OFMC calcution with the complex magnetic field and the complex first wall.
