Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The ITER project is an important step toward fusion energy utilization for human beings. Fundamental understanding of physics is quite important, as well as understanding of tokamak systems and plasma control. In this lecture, given at the 4th ITER International Summer School, we give an introduction to tokamak research on fusion energy and ITER in light of the main theme of this school, plasma control, and we present some examples to illustrate the importance of physics by showing some physics elements underlying research toward steadystate operation of reactor-relevant tokamak plasmas.
