In this tutorial article, we review the technological, physics, and economic basis for a
magnetic fusion device utilizing a flowing liquid lithium divertor (molten metal velocity in the …

A comparison of three sets of Lithium Tokamak Experiment-β (LTX-β) discharges is
presented, each with progressively more lithium evaporatively deposited on the stainless …

Recent experiments in the lithium tokamak experiment-β (LTX-β) have extended the
duration, performance, operating conditions, and diagnosis of the flat-temperature profile …

QUEST (Q-shu university experiment with steady state spherical tokamak) is a midsize
spherical tokamak capable of steady-state operation, comprising all-metal plasma-facing …

Lithium coatings in the Lithium Tokamak eXperiment (LTX) led to flat temperature profiles.
The flat temperature profiles were observed along with a hot, low density edge, implying a …

Lithium wall conditioning has improved the performance of many magnetic fusion devices. Li
conditioning in the RFX-mod device was performed by:(1) a single Li pellet injector and (2) a …

We have used a combination of pico-to-nano temporal/spatial scale computational physics
and chemistry modeling of plasma–material interfaces in the tokamak fusion plasma edges …

The characteristics of lithium-coated plasma-facing components (PFCs) have been
correlated with plasma performance on the lithium tokamak experiment-β (LTX-β). Previous …

Prompt loss of beam injected fast ions approaches 100% in lithium tokamak experiment-
beta (LTX-β) discharges, though significantly improved confinement is expected for the …

Abstract The recent Lithium Tokamak Experiment-Beta (LTX-β) upgrade includes the
addition of neutral beam injection (NBI) in the same direction as the plasma current (co-I P) …
