Abstract :
JT-60 Super Upgrade has been designed as an experimental device to establish an integrated scientific basis of a steady-state tokamak operation. A long pulse (1000 s-1 hr) full non-inductive current drive will be investigated at the plasma current of 5-6 MA. Physics and engineering features of the JT-60SU design are given. MHD stability analyses concerning low n ideal and resistive modes and n infinity ballooning modes are carried out
