The feasibility of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) for measuring fuel retention was demonstrated for the first time in a tokamak operating with tritium using a remotely controlled in situ application in JET. In JET and future fusion reactors such as ITER and DEMO, thick co-deposited layers will be formed at the inner wall during exte…
Tritium inventory build-up is a safety issue for next step devices. JET brings a unique contribution on fuel retention and recovery in a metallic device, as it has operated both in deuterium (D) and deuterium-tritium (DT) plasmas. This paper will provide an overview of results from JET in this fi…
