Abstract

This meeting demonstrated that great progress is being made in our theoretical understanding of plasma instabilities in fusion devices. Nevertheless, there remain a number of key questions relating to confinement, stability and exhaust that do not yet have complete answers. These are issues of vital importance to the success of ITER, and it is therefore important that progress continues to be made in all areas of plasma instabilities to take full advantage of ITER when it begins operation.
