QUEST (Q-Shu University Experiment with Steady-Spherical Tokamak) is the largest spherical tokamak device in Japan, and was constructed in 2008 at the Chikushi Campus (Kasuga City, Fukuoka Prefecture). IIlab is conducting physics and engineering research on plasma and fusion using QUEST. The development of a fusion reactor is the largest international cooperative project since the International Space Station, and requires long-term, continuous research and development. Kyushu University has the Research Institute of Applied Mechanics, where many researchers in the field of plasma fusion are gathered, which is rare among Japanese universities, and is making efforts to build an academic foundation to accelerate the realization of fusion reactors and to train the next generation of researchers. The researchers who will start their research in this field are an exciting generation who may be involved in nuclear burning experiments and DEMO reactor development in ITER and witness the crystallization of mankind's best science and technology (dream energy source).

Education

The Advanced Plasma Science and Engineering Laboratory (Idei–Ikezoe) collaborates closely with the Laboratory of Fusion Systems Engineering (Hanada–Onchi), the Laboratory of Fusion Plasma Control Engineering (Ido–Kinoshita), and the Laboratory of Advanced Fusion Information Control Engineering (Hasegawa) to promote effective education and research. Student offices are located in the QUEST experimental building, fostering active interaction with researchers from both Japan and abroad. Why not sharpen your problem-solving skills in this excellent environment for education and research?
