JET Upgraded Diagnostic Capabilities and Scientific Exploitation in Support of Deuterium-Tritium Operation

JET upcoming deuterium-tritium campaign, DTE2, is scheduled to take place before the end of 2020. From a point of view of diagnostics developments, for many years JET diagnostics have been upgraded in order to provide adequate support for the scientific exploitation of a D-T campaign, with particular attention to the experimental and operational conditions expected during deuterium-tritium campaigns. Diagnostic capabilities relevant for burning plasmas conditions have been specifically targeted with the focus mainly on fast ions, instabilities, neutron, gamma, ion temperature and operations support.
