The journal is included by the Higher Attestation Commission in the List of leading peer-reviewed scientific journals and publications in which the main scientific results of dissertations for the degrees of Doctor and Candidate of Sciences should be published in the following specialties: 1.3.2, 1.3.3, 1.3.8, 1.3.9, 1.3.10, 1.3.12, 1.3.13, 1.3.16, 1.3.17, 1.3.18, 1.3.19, 2.4.9, 2.6.1, 2.6.17.
The purpose of the journal Problems of Atomic Science and Technology, ser. Thermonuclear Fusion publication is acquaintance of the scientific and technological community with:
– technological studies in the area of controlled thermonuclear fusion (CTF),
– engineering development of the new fusion research, demonstration and power facilities, including hybrid facilities of fusion-fission,
– results of experiments carried out in the existing fusion facilities and experimental technological testing stands,
– results of simulation of physical processes in operating and being under development fusion facilities,
– results of thermal-hydraulic, stress-strain, neutron and plasma calculations of the fusion facilities under development,
– new computer codes developed for determination of parameters expected in these facilities,
– forecasts for development of fusion facilities and fusion power engineering, including hybrid facilities of fusion-fission,
– analyses of safety problems, licensing and economics of demonstration and power fusion facilities under development,
– new diagnostics developed for application in fusion facilities.
The tasks determined by the journal editorial board are:
– all possible assistance to the scientific governing body in the field of CTF in the choice of the most reasonable purpose of fusion facilities, including hybrid facilities of fusion-fission,
– assistance to the scientific governing body in the choice of the optimal routes of fusion power engineering development,
– assistance to the scientific governing body in the choice of the optimal routes of fusion power engineering development,
– in the absence of consensus, to publish the scientific discussions promoting the convergence of different points of view.
The journal is intended for:
– scientists and engineers, working in the field of CTF,
– graduate and undergraduate students specializing in CTF-related topics.
