Popis:	The U.S. Dept. of Energy discusses the Tokamak Fusion Core Experiment Design Study Program. The options that were considered were based on the D-shaped tokamak configuration, which included versions with copper magnets, superconducting magnets, and varied in degrees of risk both in the physics and the technology. The Plasma Physics Laboratory addresses questions on the use of tokamak ignition, what is to be learned from an ignited tokamak experiment, and how and when to implement its use. M.I.T. addresses the issues of the significance of an ignition experiment, and the importance of low cost, and then describes how a relatively inexpensive ignition experiment could be done with a copper magnet tokamak. The Lawrence Livermore Laboratory discusses the need to implement both physics and technology. The TFCX is discussed. A figure illustrates ignited tokamak options.
