start-up of T-15MD were completed. The physical launch took place in May 2021 and further hardware upgrades are planned until 2024. T-15MD has a major radius R = and a minor radius a = . The toroidal magnetic field is , produced by ordinary conducting coils. The intended plasma current is , which is planned to be sustained for with neutral particle injection and microwaves, and without using inductive current drive.
