Recent progress in research on tungsten materials for nuclear fusion applications in Europe

Michael Rieth, +70 more
TL;DR: In this article, the progress of work within the EFDA long-term fusion materials program in the area of tungsten alloys is reviewed, with a detailed overview of the latest results on materials research, fabrication processes, joining options, high heat flux testing, plasticity studies, modelling, and validation experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tungsten: An option for divertor and main chamber plasma facing components in future fusion devices

TL;DR: In this paper, the spectroscopic diagnostic of W surfaces has been extended and refined and the cooling factor of W has been re-evaluated, pointing to critical issues when operating with a W wall: anomalous transport in the plasma centre should not be too low, otherwise neoclassical accumulation can occur.
Journal ArticleDOI

Overview of the JET results in support to ITER

X. Litaudon, +1228 more
- 15 Jun 2017 - 
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.

Overview of first Wendelstein 7-X high-performance operation

Thomas Klinger, +445 more
- 05 Jun 2019 - 
TL;DR: The Wendelstein 7-X superconducting stellarator was used for the first high-performance plasma operation as discussed by the authors, achieving densities of up to 4.5 GHz with helium gas fueling.
