Pure tungsten is one of the promising candidate materials for plasma facing components (PFC) of future fusion reactors due to several favourable properties including its high melting point, high thermal conductivity, high strength, high sputtering resistivity and low coefficient of thermal expansion. Increasing geometric complexity and productivity…
The JET hybrid scenario has been developed from low plasma current carbon wall discharges to the record-breaking Deuterium-Tritium plasmas obtained in 2021 with the ITER-like Be/W wall. The development started in pure Deuterium with refinement of the plasma current, and toroidal magnetic field choices and succeeded in solving the heat load challeng…
