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…
