This paper reviews recent results of the study of dust in magnetic fusion devices.
Assessment of the role of dust in current fusion devices and ITER is presented. Dust …

An overview of dynamic self-organization phenomena in complex ionized gas systems,
associated physical phenomena, and industrial applications is presented. The most recent …

The following sections are included: Self-organized Plasma-Particle States Dust-plasma
sheath as a self-organized structure Dust voids: observations and main mechanisms …

Dust is produced in fusion devices by energetic plasma–surface interactions. As the amount
of dust increases, potential safety and operational concerns arise. The dust may contain …

The FOM-Institute for Plasma Physics Rijnhuizen is constructing Magnum-PSI; a magnetized
(3T), steady-state, large area (80cm2) high-flux (up to 1024 H+ ions m− 2s− 1) plasma …

Two populations of dust particles were found during the first phase of operation of WEST.
The one that dominates by size and weight comes from the delamination of tungsten …

For Phase 2 of WEST, the lower divertor was entirely equipped with actively cooled ITER
grade plasma-facing units made of chains of tungsten beveled monoblocks. In this …

Electrothermal plasma sources operating in the confined controlled arc discharge regime
produce heat fluxes in the range expected for hard disruptions in future large tokamaks. The …

Dust samples collected in the MAST tokamak have been characterized. Mass
measurements have been correlated to regions of collection. Electron microscopy has …

Significant amount of dust will be produced in the next generation magnetic fusion devices
due to plasma-wall interactions. The dust inventory must be controlled as it can pose a …
