2 Discharges in Current Large Tokamaks
systematic choice of the materials used in plasma machines gave important information on erosion/deposition, materials migration, hydrogen retention, and so on. One
good example is the observation of T profiles of PFS using tritium imaging plate in
TFTR, JT-60U, and JET. Figures 5.7 and 5.8 in Chap. 5 are examples of how T was
retained in deposited carbon layers on TFTR carbon tiles.
Collecting flakes and dust during the maintenance of plasma machines [22, 23]
and analyzing them are also important techniques to observe erosion deposition and
production of hazardous materials activated by neutron irradiation and contaminated
with T.
The following chapters on PMI of this book are based on results given by various
diagnostic methods described here.
