Fispact-II is an inventory code capable of performing modelling of activation, trans- mutations and burn-up induced by neutron, proton, alpha, deuteron or gamma parti- cles incident on matter. It is a completely new inventory code initially designed to be a functional replacement for Fispact-2007, but now extended to have substantially more capabil…

The DEMO Active Maintenance Facility (AMF) would be used for the storage, handling and processing of In- Vessel Components (IVC) throughout their time on site, the only exception being the time that they are installed in the vessel. It is anticipated that all handling operations associated with used components will have to be carried out using remo…

The generation of tritium in sufficient quantities is an absolute requirement for a next step fusion device such as DEMO due to the scarcity of tritium sources. A number of methods have been proposed in order to meet this requirement, however a lithium-based tritium breeding blanket that surrounds the fusion plasma is widely considered to be the mo…

EASY-II is designed as a functional replacement for the previous European Activation System, EASY-2010. It has extended nuclear data and new software, FISPACT-II, written in object-style Fortran to provide new capabilities for predictions of activation, transmutation, depletion and burnup. The new FISPACT-II code has allowed us to implement many mo…

A new infrared Thomson scattering system has been designed for the MAST tokamak. The system will measure at 120 spatial points with 10 mm resolution across the plasma. Eight 30 Hz 1.6 J Nd:YAG lasers will be combined to produce a sampling rate of 240 Hz. The lasers will follow separate parallel beam paths to the MAST vessel. Scattered light will b…

‘Trace Tritium Experiments’ (TTE) were successfully performed on JET in 2003. The Campaign marked the first use of tritium in JET plasmas since the Deuterium- Tritium Experiment (DTE1) Campaign in 1997, and was the first use of tritium in experiments under the EFDA organisation with the UKAEA as JET Operator. The safety and regulatory preparati…
