Abstract
The Joint European Torus (JET) fusion machine is the only device capable
of operation with tritium and Be, which makes it best suited to study
ITER relevant issues. A large variety of activities are performed within
the JET fusion technology task force. In this paper, some topics, such
as erosion/deposition and material transport, flakes characterization
and detritiation techniques, are highlighted. Recent results obtained
using a pumping cryopanel and on plasma facing component (PFC)
characterization, are given. Finally, issues that will be addressed in
the forthcoming JET work-programme are presented, such as a beryllium
main wall for JET and in situ laser detritiation.
