Fusion advanced studies torus (FAST) is a proposal for a satellite facility which can contribute the rapid exploitation of ITER and prepare ITER and DEMO regimes of operation, as well as exploiting innovative DEMO technology. FAST is a compact (R 0 =1.82m, a=0.64m, triangularity δ=0.4) machine able to investigate non-linear dynamics effects of alpha particle behaviours in burning plasmas [1,2,5]. The project is based on a dominant 30MW of ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH), 6MW of lower hybrid (LH) and 4MW of electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH). FAST operates at a wide range [3,4] of parameters, e.g., in high performance H-mode (B T up to 8.5T; I P up to 8MA) as well as in advanced Tokamak operation (I P =3MA), and full non-inductive current scenario (I P =2MA). Helium gas at 30K is used for cooling the resistive copper magnets [6]. That allows for a pulse duration up to 170s. To limit the TF magnet ripple ferromagnetic insert have been introduced inside the vacuum vessel (VV). Ports have been designed to also accommodate up to 10MW of negative neutral beam injection (NNBI). Tungsten (W) or liquid lithium (L-Li) have been chosen as the divertor plates material, and argon or neon as the injected impurities to mitigate the thermal loads.
