Abstract

Abstract It is the mission of the Wendelstein 7‐X (W7‐X) stellarator to demonstrate the reactor potential of the optimized stellarator line. Therefore W7‐X has to demonstrate high‐power, steady‐state operation. After completion of its construction and commissioning of the device, a first operational phase is planned to investigate basic stellarator properties and to prepare later steady‐state operation of Wendelstein 7‐X. The physics programme for this initial operation period has been developed recently to comply with the physics goals of W7‐X and will be discussed in this paper (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
