DESCRIPTION:Dr Tim Luce\, Head of Science and Operations\, ITER\nFusion re
 actions hold enormous potential for sustainable energy production friendly
  to the environment using resources that are more globally distributed\, b
 ut a demonstration of scientific\, technical\, and economic viability must
  be made in order to realize this potential.  The ITER tokamak\, now unde
 r construction in France\, represents an essential step toward a practical
  technical demonstration of fusion energy.  This talk will give a brief i
 ntroduction to the physics of tokamaks\, in order to place in context a de
 scription of the present status of the ITER Project.  Following that\, an
  overview will be presented of the physics to be explored in ITER experime
 nts and the remaining challenges for realizing the potential of fusion ene
 rgy.\nVideo of the colloquium : https://mediaspace.epfl.ch/media/0_qxj76p
