New Editor Nuclear Fusion Journal

Dr Paul Thomas, an active member of the fusion research community for 27 years, has been appointed Editor of the journal Nuclear Fusion. Dr Thomas has been a research scientist at CEA-Cadarache in France since 2000 and before that was at JET for 20 years. His fusion research interests have included tokamak operations, DT experiments, diagnostics and the use of resonant magnetic perturbations to modify plasma behaviour. He is presently engaged in high current, high shape experiments on JET and the ITER Design Review. In his first editorial for Nuclear Fusion, Dr Thomas acknowledged the significant contribution to the journal made by the outgoing Editor, Professor Chris Schueller, "The departing Editor, Chris Schueller, will be a particularly difficult act to follow."
