TL;DR: A review of TFTR plasma transport studies is presented in this article, where parallel transport and the confinement of suprathermal ions are found to be relatively well described by theory and the underlying turbulence has been studied using microwave scattering, beam emission spectroscopy and microwave reflectometry over a much broader range in k perpendicular to than previously possible.

TL;DR: The TFTR tokamak has reached its original machine design specifications (Ip=2.5 MA and BT=5.2 T) by operating at low plasma current and low density (ne approximately=1*1019 m-3), high ion temperatures (9+or2 keV) and rotation speeds (7*105 m/s) have been achieved during injection.

TL;DR: Experiments with plasmas having nearly equal concentrations of deuterium and tritium have been carried out on TFTR as mentioned in this paper and the maximum fusion power has been 107 MW, using 395 MW of neutral beam heating, in a supershot discharge and 67 MW in a high beta P discharge following a current ramp-down.
