IGNITE is a generative world foundation model designed to simulate fusion plasma behavior in the DIII‑D National Fusion Facility. Trained in a self‑supervised way on more than a decade of unlabeled experimental data, its core dynamics model can predict entire discharges from specified actuator trajectories, which may be supplied or generated from textual prompts or desired outcomes. The architecture uses spatio‑temporal tokenizers for diverse input modalities—time‑series measurements, image sequences, and high‑resolution spectrograms—feeding an auto‑regressive backbone that can forecast discharges over an infinite horizon.

arXiv:2608. 05669v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Divertor heat-flux analysis is essential for understanding plasma-wall interactions and protecting plasma-facing components in magnetic-confinement fusion devices, while conventional infrared-based inversion is usually performed after discharge and requires heat-conduction modeling with device-specific material properties, divertor geometry, and boundary conditions.
