Description
As the first full superconducting non-circular cross section tokamak in the world, EAST is used to explore the forefront physics and engineering issues on the construction of tokamak fusion reactor. Neutral beam injection has been recognized as one of the most effective means for plasma heating. According to the research plan of the EAST physics experiment, two sets of neutral beam injector (4-8MW,10-100s) will be built and operational in 2014. The paper presents the development of EAST neutral beam injector and the latest experiment results obtained on the test-stand about long pulse beam extraction and high power beam extraction, those results show that all targets reach or almost reach the design targets. All these will lay a solid foundation for the achievement of plasma heating and current drive for EAST in 2014.
