Main Facilities:

• EGYPTOR TOKAMAK
  is under conditioning state will work in plasma wall interaction and Material testing.
• PLASMA FOCUS
  There are three machines with different geometry for the study of instabilities and X-ray production.
• BATORM
  It is a baby tokamak for testing diagnostics and Tokamak physics.
• TOROIDAL PINCH
  It is a small machine fitted with radial electroc field for the study of compressing the instabilities.
• Z-PINCH
  For the study of non-linear heating by cascade discharges.
• PLASMA ACCELERATORS
  There are three machines, 150 KA for production of plasma jet, 50 KA for plasma deposition and 12 KA for plasma injector.
  
• GLOW DISCHARGE
  Normal Glow, Negative Glow and Pseudo Glow. Used for plasma application.
