The vacuum vessel,port, cryostat cylinder, lid, and bellows are being rigorously fabricated in the factory. The lowerpart of the KSTAR such as cryostat base and gravity support has been almost finished in itsfabrication. There are also great progresses and significant results in manufacturing of thesuperconducting magnet, including four Toroidal Field (TF) coils, lower and upper PF7 coils whichare the largest Poloidal Field (PF) coils. The TFOO coil, which has been made for test and back-upof the TF magnet system, was successfully tested in the cool-down and current charging. As thefabrications and procurements of major structures have been actively proceeded, assembly works werealso launched from Aug. 2003. More detailed description on these status, results, and plans will bedescribed in this paper.展开更多

However, we did not see a significant reduction of X-rays from 170 GHz 2nd harmonic ECRH at a higher field. A recently installed IR TV camera was used to observe the forward cone of synchrotron radiation from high energy REs in KSTAR. We have observed changes to the synchrotron images and reduction of the HXR by application of resonant magnetic perturbations (RMP) from in-vessel control coils (IVCC) installed inside KSTAR in the n----1 configuration.展开更多
