Kobayashi, T.

Takayuki Kobayashi received the Ph.D. degree from the University of Tsukuba, Tsukuba, Japan, in 2007. His current research interest includes physics and engineering issues to realize high performance (high-power, long-pulse, high-efficiency, and multi-frequency) heating systems and its application to plasma heating experiments. He is developing a multifrequency gyrotron, an antenna, a transmission line, and a control system of the electron cyclotron heating system for JT-60SA. He was involved in the development of high-power electron cyclotron heating and current drive system for fusion plasma experiments with Japan Atomic Energy Agency which was reorganized to National Institute of Quantum and Radiological Science and Technology, Naka, Japan.
