The JET hybrid scenario in Deuterium, Tritium and Deuterium-Tritium

Mikhail Maslov, Javier García Hernández, Matteo Fontana, Haomin Sun

The JET hybrid scenario has been developed from low plasma current carbon wall discharges to the record-breaking Deuterium-Tritium plasmas obtained in 2021 with the ITER-like Be/W wall. The development started in pure Deuterium with refinement of the plasm ...

Progress in preparing real-time control schemes for Deuterium-Tritium operation in JET

Matteo Fontana, Alessandro Pau

Operation of a magnetic fusion experiment, such as JET, relies on the availability of real-time (RT) control schemes, which supervise the plasma as it approaches the expected target performance while maintaining the integrity of the machine and its subsyst ...

Effect of fuel isotope mass on q-profile formation in JET hybrid plasmas

Matteo Fontana

The initial current ramp phase of JET hybrid plasmas is used to optimise the target q-profile for main heating to allow access to high beta and avoid MHD instabilities. Mixed protium-deuterium experiments, carried out at JET since the installation of the b ...
