1 Introduction
Chapter 2
Discharges in current large tokamaks and Plasma material interactions
Chapter 3
Power load on plasma facing materials
Chapter 4
Responses of plasma facing surface to
power load given by radiation
and energetic particles
Chapter 5
Erosion and deposition, and their
influences on plasma behavior
(Material transport in tokamak)
Chapter 6
Material modification by high
power load and its influences
on plasma
Chapter 8
Fuel retention in a rector with full C
and full W wall and its recovery
Chapter10
Selection of plasma facing materials in a reactor
Chapter 7
Fundamentals of
hydrogen recycling
Chapter 9
PMI in large Tokamaks
Part II
Basic processes
in PMI
Part III
PMI, observations
in present large
tokamaks and
prospects in a
reactor
Part I
Fusion reactor and
plasma material
interactions.
Chapter 1 Introduction of fusion reactor and PMI, and history of PMI studies
Chapter 11 Closing remarks: Perspective of PMI research
Fig. 1.1 The organization of this book
reactor and history of PMI studies, and required PMI studies in future. Chapter 2
describes the observation of discharges in a large tokamak, and Chap. 3 explains
power load to plasma-facing surface as the main cause of PMI in a fusion reactor. In
Part II, four basic processes in PMI are separately explained. They are “Responses of
plasma-facing surface to power load” in Chap. 4, “Erosion and deposition, and their
influences on plasma behavior” in Chap. 5, “Material modification by high-power
load and its influences on plasma” in Chap. 6, and “Fundamentals of hydrogen (fuel)
recycling” in Chap. 7. In Part III is described the present research status and future
prospect of PMI in three chapters. Chapter 8 summarizes “PMI in large Tokamaks”.
Chapter 9 describes “Fuel retention in a rector with full C and full W wall and its
recovery” as one of the critical issues for the establishment of a fusion reactor as
an energy source. Chapter 10 gives some ideas on the “Selection of plasma-facing
materials” for which we do not have the solution yet. In Chap. 11, the final chapter,
future prospects and research targets of PMI are suggested as the closing remarks.
