This CD presents the proceedings of a meeting which provided a forum for open discussion of the issues in physics and technology of neutral particle injection into magnetic fusion devices. The specific requirements associated with the injector construction and steady state operation of ITER and new fusion experiments have been addressed. The technical meeting included invited and contributed papers. Topics covered included: status reports and programmes on negative ion beam production, long-pulse operation, negative ion sources, acceleration and neutralization of negative ions, beam optics, injector diagnostics, and new concepts.
