This paper is a broad overview and a summary of the recent progress achieved in Ion
Cyclotron Range of Frequency (ICRF) systems, experiments and modelling during the last …

Ion temperatures of over 100 million degrees need to be reached in future fusion reactors for
the deuterium–tritium fusion reaction to work. Ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) is a …

Plasma production experiments in helium at Uragan-2M have been performed to investigate
the role of the hydrogen minority in helium. The experiments presented here were carried on …

ITER as a superconducting fusion machine needs efficient wall conditioning techniques for
application in the presence of the permanent high toroidal magnetic field for (i) reducing the …

Local gas injection has recently been tested as a tool to improve coupling of ion cyclotron
range of frequency (ICRF) waves to tokamak plasmas, which relies on the tunnelling of the …

A method for cleaning vacuum surfaces by a low-temperature (T e∼ 10 eV) relatively dense
(ne≈ 10 12 cm− 3) plasma of an RF discharge was developed and successfully applied at …

The high magnetic field helicon experiment system is a helicon wave plasma (HWP) source
device in a high axial magnetic field (B 0) developed for plasma–wall interactions studies for …

Volatile tungsten hexa-fluoride was locally injected into the TEXTOR tokamak as a marker
for material migration studies. The injection was accompanied by puffing N-15 rare isotope …

To study material erosion and deposition during different wall conditioning processes in the
Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST), two newly developed quartz …

The experiments on medium-size stellarator Uragan-2M (U-2M) in Kharkiv, Ukraine, are
carried on in support of the Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) experimental program. The scenario ion …
