    abstract = "A research activity in the Institute for Plasma Science and Technology
of National Research Council (ISTP-CNR, Italy, former IFP-CNR) and in
L.T. Calcoli (LTC, Italy) is aimed at the design and construction of
calorimetric loads for absorption and measurement of high power
millimeter-waves in the electron cyclotron frequency range. Recently,
two CW 170 GHz loads, one for the European ITER gyrotron test facility
and the other for the FALCON test- bed, have been installed at the Swiss
Plasma Center (SPC, Switzerland). One short pulse (2 s) load for 1 MW,
designed and optimised to operate at two different frequencies (84 GHz
and 126 GHz), was provided for testing and conditioning two new
dual-frequency gyrotrons for the Tokamak a Configuration Variable (TCV,
Switzerland). Two additional CW loads, designed for absorbing powers
higher than 1 MW, have been delivered to the National Institutes for
Quantum and Radiological Science and Technology (QST, Japan) and
exploited for the acceptance tests and the conditioning of the prototype
of the Japanese ITER gyrotron. The present status and the most recent
experimental results achieved in the framework of this development
activity are reported in the paper."
