For stable and efficient fusion energy production using a tokamak reactor, it is essential to
maintain a high-pressure hydrogenic plasma without plasma disruption. Therefore, it is …

In 2021 JET exploited its unique capabilities to operate with T and DT fuel with an ITER-like
Be/W wall (JET-ILW). This second major JET DT campaign (DTE2), after DTE1 in 1997 …

Abstract Deuterium/Tritium (D/T) handling in defined proportions are pivotal to maintain
steady-state operation for fusion reactors. However, the hydrogen isotope effect in metal …

For more than a decade, an unprecedented predict-first activity has been carried in order to
predict the fusion power and provide guidance to the second Deuterium–Tritium (D–T) …

The objective of thermonuclear fusion consists of producing electricity from the coalescence
of light nuclei in high temperature plasmas. The most promising route to fusion envisages …

One of our grand challenges towards fusion energy is the achievement of a high-
performance plasma core coupled to a boundary solution. The high confinement mode (H …

To solve climate change and to achieve the “2050 carbon neutrality,” fusion energy has to
contribute to the power grid as soon as possible. Nonetheless, DEMO reactor concepts …

At present, magnetic confinement fusion devices rely solely on absolute neutron counting as
a direct way of measuring fusion power. Absolute counting of deuterium-tritium gamma rays …

The reference ion cyclotron resonance frequency (ICRF) heating schemes for ITER
deuterium–tritium (DT) plasmas at the full magnetic field of 5.3 T are second harmonic …

Screening of high-Z (W) impurities from the confined plasma by the temperature gradient at
the plasma periphery of fusion-grade H-mode plasmas has been demonstrated in the JET …
