Performance of tungsten plasma facing components in the stellarator experiment W7-X: Recent results from the first OP2 campaign

The transition to reactor-relevant materials for the plasma facing components (PFCs) is an important and necessary step to provide a proof of principle that the stellarator concept can meet the requirements of a future fusion reactor by demonstrating high performance steady-state operation. As a fir...
