The understanding and predictive capability of transport physics and plasma confinement is
reviewed from the perspective of achieving reactor-scale burning plasmas in the ITER …

High-performance and long-pulse operation is a crucial goal of current magnetic fusion
research. Here, we demonstrate a high-confinement plasma regime known as an H-mode …

The input power requirements for accessing H-mode at low density and maintaining it during
the density ramp in ITER is addressed by statistical means applied to the international H …

Abstract The JET ITER-Like Wall experiment (JET-ILW) provides an ideal test bed to
investigate plasma-surface interaction (PSI) and plasma operation with the ITER plasma …

Some of the remaining crucial plasma edge physics and plasma–material interaction issues
of the ITER tokamak are discussed in this paper, using either modelling or projections of …

This paper presents the results of a preliminary assessment conducted to estimate the
thermal response and erosion lifetime of the ITER divertor targets clad either with carbon …

The European nuclear fusion research community has elaborated a Roadmap to the
realisation of fusion energy in which 'ITER is the key facility and its success is the most …

Operation of DEMO in comparison to ITER will be significantly more demanding, as various
additional limitations of physical and technical nature have to be respected. In particular a …
