Plasma-surface interactions in tokamaks

1979

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

A summary is given of the present status of research on plasma-surface interactions in tokamaks. Three groups of important interactions are considered: recycling of the principal ion species, usually hydrogen or deuterium; the release and effect of low-Z contaminants; and the release and effect of high-Z contaminants. In each case the basic physical processes are reviewed and the relevant data from particlebeam measurements are summarized. Emphasis is given to discussing the effect of the various surface interactions in present-day tokamak discharges and in future fusion reactors. Surface studies in tokamaks are reviewed and methods of controlling the surface interactions and their effects are considered.

“…The cross-section for desorption will obviously depend on the binding energy of the impurity atom. Thus in Eqs (10) and (11) we assume that the binding energy is independent of surface concentration.…”
