Megawatt-class, continuous wave gyrotrons are employed as high-power millimeter (mm)-wave sources for electron cyclotron heating (ECH) and current drive tokamaks stellarators. development pushes ECH from a minor major method. Also based technological complexes successfully applied resonance ion sources, microwave ceramic sintering diamond disk production. paper describes main features of high frequency gyrotrons....
The possibility and prospects of extreme ultraviolet (UV) point-like source development are discussed in the present paper.

Abstract It was shown experimentally that for a 65-fs 17-J pulse, the effect of filamentation instability, also known as small-scale self-focusing, is much weaker than predicted by stationary and nonstationary theoretical models high B-integral values. Although this discrepancy has been left unexplained at moment, in practice no signs may allow breakthrough nonlinear pulse post-compression laser energy.
