During his working visit to Moscow July 12 Kazakhstan’s PM Karim Massimov met a world-renown plasma physicist, Dr. Evgeny Velikhov, serving as president of the Kurchatov Institute Russian Research Center in Moscow, PM Massimov wrote in his Facebook account. “During the talks we discussed acute issues of Kazakhstan-Russian cooperation in the nuclear industry as well as interaction within reaserch programs run in Kazakhstan’s Kurchatov [under the aegis of the Kurchatov Institute]”, he elaborated. June 22 PM Massimov had been to the National Nuclear Center in Kurchatov on his working trip round the East Kazakhstan. Kurchatov is a town in East Kazakhstan Province in northeast Kazakhstan. Named after Soviet nuclear physicist Igor Kurchatov, the town was once the centre of operations for the adjoining Semipalatinsk Test Site. Now Kurchatov is home to a joint Kazakhstani-Russian tokamak worth $15 million. Its first plasma was produced in September 2010. The tokamak is one of several types of magnetic confinement devices, and is one of the most-researched candidates for producing controlled thermonuclear fusion power. Magnetic fields are used for confinement since no solid material could withstand the extremely high temperature of the plasma.
