The observation of radiative collapses during ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH)
operation on the full tungsten WEST tokamak constitutes a unique opportunity to get a …

Plasma heating in the full tungsten (W) environment in a steady-state tokamak (WEST) relies
on electromagnetic waves in both the lower hybrid (LH) and ion cyclotron range of …

Experimental data, together with interpretive modeling tools, are examined to study trends in
the tungsten (W) source in the all-W environment of the WEST tokamak, both from the …

The pre-fusion power operation (PFPO) phase of ITER, as described in the ITER research
plan with Staged Approach, 2 includes both hydrogen (H) and helium (He) plasma …

Tungsten transport is investigated in WEST long pulse L-mode plasmas operated with the
strike point on the actively cooled upper tungsten divertor. The pulses are mostly heated by …

The present work concerns the measurements obtained with the Tungsten (W) Environment
in Steady-state Tokamak (WEST) visible spectroscopy system during the first experimental …

Achieving a successful plasma current ramp-up in a full tungsten tokamak can be
challenging due to the large core radiation (and resulting low core temperature) that can be …

WEST is an actively cooled, long-pulse tokamak with nearly all plasma-facing components
(PFC) made of tungsten (W). One of the aims of WEST is to study plasma operation with W …

In this paper, we present the use of deep neural networks to estimate physical parameters
from complex optical emission spectra of the D β/H β transition. Specifically, we focus on …

The mission of WEST (tungsten-W Environment in Steady-state Tokamak) is to explore long
pulse operation in a full tungsten (W) environment for preparing next-step fusion devices …
