abstract = {The erosion of tungsten (W), induced by the bombardment of
plasma and impurity particles, determines the lifetime of
plasma-facing components as well as impacting on plasma
performance by the influx of W into the confined region. The
screening of W by the divertor and the transport of W in the
plasma determines largely the W content in the plasma core,
but the W source strength itself has a vital impact on this
process. The JET tokamak experiment provides access to a
large set of W erosion-determining parameters and permits a
detailed description of the W source in the divertor closest
to the ITER one: (i) effective sputtering yields and fluxes
as function of impact energy of intrinsic (Be, C) and
extrinsic (Ne, N) impurities as well as hydrogenic isotopes
(H, D) are determined and predictions for the tritium (T)
isotope are made. This includes the quantification of intra-
and inter-edge localised mode (ELM) contributions to the
total W source in H-mode plasmas which vary owing to the
complex flux compositions and energy distributions in the
corresponding phases. The sputtering threshold behaviour and
the spectroscopic composition analysis provides an insight
in the dominating species and plasma phases causing W
erosion. (ii) The interplay between the net and gross W
erosion source is discussed considering (prompt)
re-deposition, thus, the immediate return of W ions back to
the surface due to their large Larmor radius, and surface
roughness, thus, the difference between smooth bulk-W and
rough W-coating components used in the JET divertor. Both
effects impact on the balance equation of local W erosion
and deposition. (iii) Post-mortem analysis reveals the net
erosion/deposition pattern and the W migration paths over
long periods of plasma operation identifying the net W
transport to remote areas. This W transport is related to
the divertor plasma regime, e.g. attached operation with
high impact energies of impinging particles or detached
operation, as well as to the applied magnetic configuration
in the divertor, e.g. close divertor with good geometrical
screening of W or open divertor configuration with poor
screening.JET equipped with the ITER-like wall (ILW)
provided unique access to the net W erosion rate within a
series of 151 subsequent H-mode discharges (magnetic field:
T, plasma current: MA, auxiliary power MW) in one magnetic
configuration accumulating 900 s of plasma with particle
fluences in the range of 5– in the semi-detached inner and
attached outer divertor leg. The comparison of W
spectroscopy in the intra-ELM and inter-ELM phases with
post-mortem analysis of W marker tiles provides a set of
gross and net W erosion values at the outer target plate.
ERO code simulations are applied to both divertor leg
conditions and reproduce the erosion/deposition pattern as
well as confirm the high experimentally observed prompt W
re-deposition factors of more than $95\%$ in the intra- and
inter-ELM phase of the unseeded deuterium H-mode plasma.
Conclusions to the expected divertor conditions in ITER as
well as to the JET operation in the DT plasma mixture are
drawn on basis of this unique benchmark experiment.},
