Scenario development of ITER ELMy H-mode hydrogen plasma

Following the ITER first plasma, ITER will undergo operation preparing for the main deu- terium and deuterium-tritium campaigns [1]. During this preparatory phase, referred to as Pre- Fusion Power Operation (PFPO), stable H-mode operation will be demonstrated, and several systems, including auxiliary heating & current drive, various diagnostics, ELM mitigation, and divertor heat flux control, will be commissioned. Hydrogen and helium will be the main plasma species to ensure non-active operation.
