In the EU DEMO reactor, the Water-Cooled Lithium-Lead Tritium Extraction and Removal system (WCLL TER) is dedicated to transporting tritium-rich PbLi from the Breeding Blanket to the Tritium Extraction Unit and then back to it, after tritium is extracted and routed to the fuel cycle. In addition to circulating PbLi and extracting tritium, the TE…
A Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) based detector was exploited for the first time on the MASTU tokamak during the 2023 campaign to investigate Soft X-Ray (SXR) radiation (1-20keV) emitted from the plasma. SXR radiation carries essential information on electron temperature and density, impurity presence, and Magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) activities, m…
