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: Experiments performed on FTU (Frascati Tokamak Upgrade) show that the coupled radio frequency power can penetrate into high-density plasmas due to weaker plasma edge effects, thus extending the effective range of lower hybrid current drive towards the domain relevant for fusion reactors.

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed review of the physics basis for the DTE2 operational scenarios, including the fusion power predictions through first principle and integrated modelling, and the impact of isotopes in the operation and physics of DTE plasmas (thermal and particle transport, high confinement mode, Be and W erosion, fuel recovery, etc).

TL;DR: In this paper, a real-time algorithm for disruption prediction, based on MHD activity signals from Mirnov coils, was developed exploiting a large database of disruptions, and a new actively cooled lithium limiter was inserted in the scrape-off layer, without any damage to the limiter surface.

TL;DR: In this paper, electron-cyclotron-resonance heating on FTU plasmas at peak densities up to 8 keV has been shown to produce extremely high temperature gradients (up to 120 keV/m).
