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…

In JET deuterium-tritium (D-T) plasmas, the fusion power is produced through thermonuclear reactions and reactions between thermal ions and fast particles generated by neutral beam injection (NBI) heating or accelerated by electromagnetic wave heating in the ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF). To complement the experiments with 50/50 D/T …

In the paper we present an overview of interpretive modelling of a database of JET-ILW 2021 D-T discharges using the TRANSP code. Our main aim is to assess our capability of computationally reproducing the fusion performance of various D-T plasma scenarios using different external heating and D-T mixtures, and understand the performance driving mec…

In 2019, the JET-ILW was equipped with a Shattered Pellet Injector (SPI) system with a wide capability to allow studies on the efficacy of shattered pellets in reducing the electro-magnetic and the thermal loads during disruptions and the avoidance/suppression of the formation of runaway electrons. The fully commissioned system became operationa…

Accurate and consistent measurements of the electron temperature (Te) profile are paramount for current fusion experiments, like JET, and future devices, such as ITER. In high performance plasmas in JET and TFTR, electron cyclotron emission (ECE) measurements for central Te>5 keV were systematically found to be up to 20%…

Thomson scattered light is polarised in the same orientation as the incident laser beam at low electron temperatures. At high temperatures (>~4keV) part of the spectrum begins to become randomly polarised. First measurement of the depolarised Thomson scattering spectrum during were obtained from JET pulses 92038-92504. This paper builds upon …

Unusually high power loads on the Beryllium limiter caused by Neutral Beam re-ionisation, and much cooler divertor target surfaces were observed during the recent JET tritium campaign. As both phenomena are driven by scrape-off layer (SOL) physics, the SOL features of 72 tritium H-mode discharges and their deuterium references have been studied. …
