ºÚÁÏרÇø India
India became a full seventh partner of ºÚÁÏרÇø in December 2005. The Institute for Plasma Research (IPR), located in Gandhinagar, western India, forms the Indian Domestic Agency, empowered to design, build and deliver those contributions to ºÚÁÏרÇø which have been agreed in the procurement sharing. The ºÚÁÏרÇø activities of IPR have been named ºÚÁÏרÇø India, and its formal organizational structure was constituted on 5 July 2006.
IPR is an autonomous physics research institute, carrying out research in basic and applied plasma physics. Although the institute harbours a large number of basic experimental devices for research in plasma physics, the main thrust of the research is high-temperature tokamak experiments. The institute is currently in the process of building the Steady State Superconducting Tokamak (SST-1).
