Fabrication of an 8-meter coil inside the JT-60SA vessel with ±2 mm accuracy
[News Highlights]
- Two Fast Plasma Positioning Control Coils (FPPCs) for maintaining stable plasma during the plasma heating experiments scheduled to begin in 2026, have been completed for JT-60SA—the world’s largest superconducting tokamak— jointly constructed by Japan and Europe in Naka City, Ibaraki Prefecture.
- The FPPC is an 8-meter-diameter copper coil, installed inside the JT‑60SA vacuum vessel (inner diameter 10 meters). During fabrication, engineers successfully overcame the technical challenge of winding coil within the confined environment of vacuum vessel, achieving positional and shape accuracy within ±2 millimeters.
- The technology developed with JT-60SA contributes to the fabrication of in-vessel coils for ITER, currently under construction in southern France. Going forward, the advanced technology for stable control of the world’s largest plasma using the FPPC at JT‑60SA will serve as an important foundation for advancing plasma control technologies amid intensifying international competition, and for establishing the autonomy and high reliability of DEMO reactors.
TOKYO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (President: KOYASU Shigeo; hereinafter referred to as “QST”) and Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (President & CEO: URUMA Kei; hereinafter referred to as “Mitsubishi Electric”) have successfully completed the fabrication of two Fast Plasma Positioning Control Coils (FPPCs)—a core technology for high-speed, high-precision plasma position control—for JT-60SA as part of the Broader Approach Activities, which is a joint project between Japan and Europe.

Taiko Makes Chainlink Data Streams Its Official Oracle
The post Taiko Makes Chainlink Data Streams Its Official Oracle appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Notes Taiko has officially integrated Chainlink Data Streams for its Layer 2 network. The integration provides developers with high-speed market data to build advanced DeFi applications. The move aims to improve security and attract institutional adoption by using Chainlink’s established infrastructure. Taiko, an Ethereum-based ETH $4 514 24h volatility: 0.4% Market cap: $545.57 B Vol. 24h: $28.23 B Layer 2 rollup, has announced the integration of Chainlink LINK $23.26 24h volatility: 1.7% Market cap: $15.75 B Vol. 24h: $787.15 M Data Streams. The development comes as the underlying Ethereum network continues to see significant on-chain activity, including large sales from ETH whales. The partnership establishes Chainlink as the official oracle infrastructure for the network. It is designed to provide developers on the Taiko platform with reliable and high-speed market data, essential for building a wide range of decentralized finance (DeFi) applications, from complex derivatives platforms to more niche projects involving unique token governance models. According to the project’s official announcement on Sept. 17, the integration enables the creation of more advanced on-chain products that require high-quality, tamper-proof data to function securely. Taiko operates as a “based rollup,” which means it leverages Ethereum validators for transaction sequencing for strong decentralization. Boosting DeFi and Institutional Interest Oracles are fundamental services in the blockchain industry. They act as secure bridges that feed external, off-chain information to on-chain smart contracts. DeFi protocols, in particular, rely on oracles for accurate, real-time price feeds. Taiko leadership stated that using Chainlink’s infrastructure aligns with its goals. The team hopes the partnership will help attract institutional crypto investment and support the development of real-world applications, a goal that aligns with Chainlink’s broader mission to bring global data on-chain. Integrating real-world economic information is part of a broader industry trend. Just last week, Chainlink partnered with the Sei…
