Offline Reinforcement Learning for Rotation Profile Control in Tokamaks

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2605.05857v1 Announce Type: new Tokamaks remain leading candidates for achieving practical fusion energy, yet many important control problems inside these devices are still difficult or unsolved. One such challenge is controlling the plasma rotation profile, which strongly influences stability, confinement, and transport. While the average rotation can be controlled, controlling the full profile is challenging due to high dimensionality, response to multiple actuators and dependence on plasma condition.
