Tungsten melting and erosion under plasma heat load in tokamak discharges with disruptions
Full tungsten poloidal and mushroom limiters were tested in series of experiments with disruptions in the T-10 tokamak. Significant melting, formation of small craters and erosion of the tungsten limiter have been observed after ∼400 discharges with disruption. A theoretical description of the tungs...
