A December 20th announcement of creation of a
1,000,000 ampere plasma torus;
http://www.pppl.gov/docs/news/pages/nstx_one_ma.html
One million amperes is the highest plasma current ever
produced in a spherical torus device. The previous
record is 310,000 amperes achieved in a smaller
spherical torus device called START -- the Small Tight
Aspect Ratio Tokamak -- built by Culham Fusion
Laboratory of U.K.
NSTX is a proof-of-principle experiment -- a
relatively inexpensive device, which will create
conditions suitable for the study of
fusion-energy-relevant plasma behavior and advanced
plasma heating and current-drive techniques. It is not
planned to produce significant fusion energy in this
device.
