The most distinctive feature of the superconducting magnet system for JT-60SA is the optimized coil structure in terms of the space utilization as well as the highly accurate coil manufacturing, thus meeting the requirements for the steady-state tokamak research: A conceptually new outer inter-coil structure separated from the casing is introduced to the toroidal field coils to realize their slender shape, allowing large-bore diagnostic ports for detailed plasma measurements. A method to minimize the manufacturing error of the equilibrium-field coils has been established, aiming at the precise plasma shape/position control. A compact butt-joint has been successfully developed for the Central Solenoid, which allows an optimized utilization of the limited space for the Central Solenoid to extend the duration of the plasma pulse.

The JT-60SA is progressing as a "satellite" facility for ITER in the Broader Approach agreement. The fabrications of the conductor for CS and EF coils were started in 2008. The first superconducting conductor of EF4 coil was manufactured at March 2010. The manufacturing tools for EF coils are design and prepared from 2009. The double pancake using the superconductor has been started at 2011. The TF coil case encloses the winding pack and is the main structural component of the magnet system. The interface between TF case and CS and EF coil were designed. The conductor for TF coils fabrication has been started. The cryogenic system is equivalent to be about 9 kW refrigeration at 4.5 K. Each coil is electrically connected through the in-cryostat feeder and the coil terminal boxes. The 26 current leads using high temperature superconductor. The manufacturing of superconducting magnet for JT-60SA are started by solving its cost and technology.

This report provides thermodynamic data for predicting concentrations of palladium Pd, lead Pb, tin Sn, antimony Sb, niobium Nb and bismuth Bi in geologic environments, and contributes to an integration of the JNC chemical thermodynamic database, JNC-TDB (previously PNC-TDB), for the performance analysis of geological isolation system of high-level radioactive wastes. Besides treating hydrolysis in detail, this report focuses on the formation of complexes or compounds with chloride, fluoride, carbonate, nitrate, sulfate and phosphate. Other important inorganic ligands (sulfide for lead and antimony, ammonia for palladium) are also included. In this study, the specific ion interaction theory (SIT) approach is used to extrapolate thermodynamic constants to zero ionic strength at 25C.
