"Waste implications from minor impurities in European DEMO materials"
27th IAEA Fusion Energy Conference, Ahmedabad, India, 22-27 October 2018

M.R. Gilbert T. Eade C. Bachmann U. Fischer N.P. Taylor

Waste-production predictions for the future demonstration fusion power plant (DEMO) are necessary to produce an accurate picture of the likely environmental and economic costs of radioactive waste disposal at end-of-life (EOL). Even during the conceptual stage of DEMO design it is important to perform waste assessment so as to avoid potential surpr…

"Shallow pellet fuelling under conditions of RMP ELM mitigation or divertor detachment in ASDEX Upgrade"
45th European Physical Society Conference on Plasma Physics (EPS), Prague, 2-6 July 2018

Pellets are used in ASDEX Upgrade [1] to control plasma density under conditions of ELM control or divertor detachment. In experiments presented here direct fuelling by gas is negligible. Relative pellet size and pellet deposition are aimed to approach those in ITER but differences still remain. ELMs are controlled by n=2 RMPs in feed forward mode …
