Abstract
The Wendelstein 7-X stellarator is now being assembled at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physic (IPP), Greifswald, Germany. The Agreement on Cooperation between the Max-Planck-Institut fur Plasmaphysik in Garching and the Henryk Niewodniczanski Institute of Nuclear Physics Polish Academy of Sciences in Krakow (IFJ PAN) was signed off in 2007. The intention of the agreement is to cover the whole period of the W7-X construction. According to the agreement IFJ PAN has taken over the following tasks:
1. to assembly of the bus bar system powering the superconducting coils of the stellarator;
2. to take part in design of equipment used during handling, transportation and assembly of outer vessels;
3. to manufacture 30 polichromators used for plasma diagnostics.
Task No 2 was completed in 2008 while tasks No 1 and 3 are to be continued.
