abstract = {In a fusion reactor a significant fraction of plasma
particles lost from the confined volume will reach the
vessel wall. The recombination of these charged species,
electrons and ions of hydrogen isotopes, is a source of
neutral molecules and atoms, recycling back into the plasma.
Here they participate, in particular, in charge-exchange
(c-x) collisions with the plasma ions and, as a result,
atoms of high energies with chaotically oriented velocities
are generated. A significant fraction of these hot neutrals
will hit the wall, leading, as well as the outflowing fuel
and impurity ions, to its erosion, limiting the reactor
operation time. The rate of the wall erosion in DEMO is
assessed by applying a one-dimensional model which takes
into account the transport of charged and neutral species
across the flux surfaces in the main part of the scrape-off
layer, beyond the X-point vicinity and divertor, and by
considering the shift of the centers of flux surfaces, their
elongation and triangularity. Atoms generated by c-x of
recycling neutrals are modeled kinetically to define firmly
their energy spectrum, being of particular importance for
the erosion assessment. It is demonstrated the erosion rate
of the DEMO wall armor of tungsten will have a pronounced
ballooning character with a significant maximum of $0.3$ mm
per full power year at the low field side, decreasing with
an increase in the anomalous perpendicular transport in the
'far' SOL or the plasma density at the separatrix.},
