The heliotron concept was one of the first approaches in Japan to obtain a contolled thermonuclear device. Heliotron E, the present major experimental facility, was built at Kyoto University in 1980. This facility's main objectives are: To demonstare the production of a plasma with high temperature (T/SUB e/ about T/SUB i/ <1keV) and high n/SUB e/ T/SUB E/ value, where n/SUB e/ and T/SUB E/ are the average density of plasma and the energy confinement time; to explore the scaling law of confinement over a wide range of plasma parameters; to study neutral beam injection and radio frequency heating and to find effective ways of producing high temperature plasma.
