JET is the only tokamak capable of Deuterium-Tritium (D-T) operations. The first D-T operations were in the 1990s and again in 2004. In 2020/2021 JET operated a much larger D-T campaign aimed at sustained high fusion power requiring a much higher tritium throughput. This paper presents an overview of the recent Tritium Injections into the JET To…
The accuracy of process measurements of tritium with conventional ion chambers is often affected by surface tritium contamination. The measurement of tritium in the exhaust of the JET torus is particularly difficult due to surface contamination with highly tritiated hydrocarbons. JET’s first unsuccessful attempt to overcome the contamination prob…
