H-1 Overview(best with MS IE)
The H-1NF was established in the first round of the Major National Facility Program
of the then Department of Industry, Science and Technology( More detail and description).
The Australian Government recently announced significant funding for upgrades in the 2009 budget.
Facility Objectives
Provide a high-temperature plasma national facility of international standing on a scale appropriate to Australia's research budget.
Provide a focus for national and international collaborative research, make significant contributions to the global fusion research effort and increase the Australian presence in the field of plasma fusion power into the next century.
Gain a detailed understanding of the basic physics of hot plasma which is magnetically confined in the helical-axis stellarator configuration.
Develop advanced plasma measurement systems ("diagnostics''),
integrating real-time processing and multi-dimensional visualization
of data.
