Hungarian camera system recorded the first hydrogen plasma in W7-X
On the 3rd of February 2016, fusion community payed attention to Greifswald again. Wendelstein 7-X produced its first hydrogen plasma as a start of the scientific campaign.
The first pictures of the hydrogen plasma were captured by the Hungarian camera system just like in December when W7-X officially started.
