48 Fusion Reactor Engineering References
* Kammash, Terry. _Fusion reactor physics: principles and
technology._ Ann Arbor Science Publishers. 1975.
"For those who care mostly about engineering aspects and want
to know the physics involved in controlling and heating a
reactor plasma, Kammash is the first place to go." - Bruce Scott

* Krakowski, R.A., and Delene, J.G., "Connections Between Physics and
Economics for Tokamak Fusion Power Plants," _Journal of Fusion
Energy_, vol. 7, no 1, 1988, pp. 49-89.
From the abstract: "A simplified physics, engineering, and
costing model of a tokamak is used to examine quantitatively
the connection between physics performance and power-plant
economics...."
Level - Familiarity with plasma and reactor-engineering
terminology needed.

* Najmabadi, et at. "The ARIES-II and ARIES-IV Second-Stability
Tokamak Reactors," in _Fusion Technology_, Vol. 21, May 1992, pp.
1721-1728.
Summarizes two of the ARIES paper reactors. Both designs involve
utilizing the second stability regime to allow reduced magnetic
field strengths; also incorporate low-activation structural
materials and other features. Part of an ongoing effort to
design an economically viable tokamak.
(This section certainly needs to have more literature reviewed, but
it's not (yet) my field of expertise. Help anyone?)
