Overview of the JET preparation for deuterium-tritium operation with the ITER like-wall [PDF]
For the past several years, the JET scientific programme (Pamela et al 2007 Fusion Eng. Des.82 590) has been engaged in a multi-campaign effort, including experiments in D, H and T, leading up to 2020 and the first experiments with 50%/50% D–T mixtures ...

High resolution charge-exchange spectroscopic measurements of aluminum impurity ions in a high temperature plasma [PDF]
Charge-exchange recombination spectroscopy, which is generally used to measure low-Z impurities in fusion devices, has been used for measuring Al+11 and Al+13 impurities in the Madison Symmetric Torus reversed field pinch.

Characterization of a spheromak plasma gun: The effect of refractory electrode coatings [PDF]
In order to investigate the proposition that high-Z impurities are responsible for the anomalously short lifetime of the Caltech spheromak, the center electrode of the spheromak plasma gun has been coated with a variety of metals (bare steel, copper ...

Impact of minority concentration on fundamental (H)D ICRF heating performance in JET-ILW [PDF]
ITER will start its operation with non-activated hydrogen and helium plasmas at a reduced magnetic field of B-0 = 2.65 T. In hydrogen plasmas, the two ion cyclotron resonance frequency (ICRF) heating schemes available for central plasma heating ...

OEDGE modeling for the planned tungsten ring experiment on DIII-D
The OEDGE code is used to model tungsten erosion and transport for experiments with toroidal rings of high-Z metal tiles in the DIII-D tokamak. Such modeling is needed for both experimental and diagnostic design to have estimates of the expected core and

Observation of reduced-turbulence regime with tungsten injection in HL-2A edge plasmas
A reduced-turbulence regime has been observed in HL-2A NBI-heated deuterium plasmas. The transition to this regime is achieved by injecting a certain amount of tungsten into the plasma based on the laser blow-off technique.

3D simulations of gas puff effects on edge plasma and ICRF coupling in JET [PDF]
Recent JET (ITER-Like Wall) experiments have shown that the fueling gas puffed from different locations of the vessel can result in different scrape-off layer (SOL) density profiles and therefore different radio frequency (RF) coupling.
