Fast helium-beam plasma spectroscopy: a specific plasma diagnostics to determine plasma density and temperature profiles, pursued at TU Wien in close cooperation with EFDA-JET / Culham.

EUROFER 97

In 1997/1998 Böhler Edelstahl AG (Kapfenberg) developed the low-activation ferritic martensitic steel EUROFER 97, which now serves as one of the European reference structural materials for fusion.

SIMS facility (Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometer) at the VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland is used to analyse the first wall phenomena in JET such as erosion, redeposition, hydrogen retention and material transport in the edge region.

Finnish company Diarc Technology Ltd made tungsten coatings on the JET divertor tiles. The tiles were removed recently showing that the coating had survived well over two years of JET operation.

Electromagnetic coil systems of the "Dynamic Ergodic Divertor" at TEXTOR before the setting up of protective graphite tiles. The experiment generates perturbing fields aiming at ergodising the plasma boundary layer. This allows for influencing and studying the thermal isolation of the fusion plasma and the related energy exhaust as well as its subsequent deposition onto the surrounding walls.

The TCV Tokamak, the largest experimental facility at EPFL, can maintain plasma electric current greater than 1MA for a couple of seconds. Due to its unique flexibility TCV can produce and control plasmas with very diverse cross-section shapes.

Heating system of TCV: gyrotrons tuned to 83 GHz (6 sources) and to 118 GHz (3 sources) can deliver in total 4.5 MW of heating power.

In SULTAN, CRPP has a world unique facility that allows studies and characterisation of superconducting cables, of particular relevance for ITER.
