Perspective of analogy between heat loads and impurity production in L-mode discharges with ICRH in WEST

This study compares experimental observations on plasma surface interactions and heat loads induced by Ion Cyclotron Resonance Heating (ICRH) in WEST medium size tokamak. When powering ICRH, core contamination by metallic impurities systematically results in an increase of the power radiated, often...
