Theoretical Aspects of Dust in Fusion Devices

Abstract: It is known that micro-particles (dust) exist in fusion devices. However, an impact of dust on plasma contamination, material migration, and performance of fusion devices is still under debate. In burning plasma experiments like ITER dust can also pose safety problems related to it's chemical activity, toxicity, tritium retention, and radioactive content. In order to address all these issues we need to understand the physics of dust generation, dynamics, and transport. In this paper, the results of recent theo… Show more

“…Second, a particle can be driven by a phoretic force, e.g., the photophoretic force from the illumination laser [9,10]. Third, as a rather extreme case, a particle can be propelled by the "rocket force" due to the ablation and removal of the particle material by a powerful laser irradiation [11,12].…”

“…by brittle destruction of carbon layers, by melting of surfaces or by desintegration of surface layers, see e.g. (Winter and Gebauer 1999;Sharpe et al 2002;Krasheninnikov et al 2010). Dust particles can then cover optics and diagnostics.…”

“…The analysis of the magnitude of the 'rocket' force [25] shows that it can be very important for the compound grain consisting of the pieces of different materials (especially having very different evaporation energy). However, for the case of a homogeneous grain the friction force with Mach ∼1 plasma flow dominates.…”
