Predictions of the pedestal temperature profile calculated using a model for ETG turbulent electron heat transport [A R Field et al 2023 Phil. Trans. Royal Soc. A 381 (2242) 20210228] are compared with the pedestal structure of JET-ILW (‘ITER-like wall’) H-mode plasmas over scans of the deuterium-tritium (D:T) isotope mix and hydrogenic gas fue…

The effects of a poloidally localized bulge at outer midplane is investigated with regards to the stability of ideal MHD peeling-ballooning modes and n = ∞ ballooning modes. The effect of the bulge is that the n = ∞ ballooning mode stability at the bottom of the H-mode pedestal is significantly degraded, while the peeling-ballooning mode sta…

This work examines the separatrix and SOL characteristics in three scenarios on JET: the Quasi-Continuous Exhaust (QCE) regime, the core-edge-SOL integrated ITER Baseline scenario, and the X-point Radiator (XPR) regime. All three scenarios are potentially compatible with reactor operations, as they aim to provide power exhaust solutions through dif…

The development of a high current baseline scenario (I_p = 3.5MA, q95 ~3.0, beta_N < 2) in deuterium (D), tritium (T) and deuterium-tritium (D-T) for high DT fusion performance at JET with Be/W wall is described. We show that a suitable scenario capable of delivering up to 10 MW of fusion power, depending on the auxiliary heating power avail…

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…

JET’s frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) reflectometers have been operating well with the current design since 2005 and density profiles are being automatically calculated intershot since then. However, the calculated profiles had long suffered from several shortcomings – poor agreement with other diagnostics; sometimes inappropriate…

ITER is of key importance in the European fusion roadmap as it aims to prove the scientific and technological feasibility of fusion as a future energy source. The EUROfusion consortium of labs is contributing to the preparation of ITER scientific exploitation and operation and aspires to exploit ITER outcomes in view of DEMO. The paper provides …

During the DTE2 campaign in the JET tokamak we performed a parameter scan in T and D-T complementing existing pulses in H and D. For the different main ion masses H-modes at fixed plasma current and magnetic field can have the pedestal pressure varying by a factor of 4 and the total pressure changing from betaN = 1.0 to 3.0. Based on this wide data…

A dataset of baseline DT plasmas with peripheral HFS fuelling pellets has been produced on JET, in order to mimic the situtation in ITER. During the pellet ablation phase prompt particle losses due to pellet triggered ELM can be detected. Regarding pellet deposition, the data indicate that plasmoids drift velocity might be smaller than predicted…
