TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the processes that will determine the properties of the plasma edge and its interaction with material elements in ITER and compare their predictions with the new experimental results.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the 2014-2016 JET results in the light of their significance for optimising the ITER research plan for the active and non-active operation, stressing the importance of the magnetic configurations and the recent measurements of fine-scale structures in the edge radial electric.

TL;DR: In this paper, α-particle-driven toroidal Alfven eigenmodes (TAEs) were observed for the first time in deuterium-tritium (D-T) plasmas on the tokamak fusion test reactor (TFTR).

TL;DR: In this paper, an overview of JET experimental results in DT plasmas directly relevant to ITER modes of operation is presented, which is consistent with a model in which the edge pressure gradient saturates at the ballooning limit over a region of width that scales as the ion poloidal Larmor radius governed by the average energy of the fast ions in the edge.

TL;DR: The first magnetic fusion experiments to study plasmas using nearly equal concentrations of deuterium and tritium have been carried out on the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor (TFTR).
