[edit] The Main Parameters of SUNIST:

Parameter	Symbol	Value
Major Radius	R	30 cm
Minor Radius	a	23 cm
Elongation Ratio	κ	1.6
On-axis Magnetic Field	B₀	1500 Gauss
Typical Plasma Current	I_P	30 kA

[edit] Current Research Activities:

Alfven wave current drive experiments in spherical tokamak plasmas Alfven wave can generate toroidal plasma current without density limits. This is very favourable for spherical tokamak plasmas, which have very high dielectric constants that makes LHCD or ECCD very hard.
