Program status 1. quarter -- FY 1994: ITER and technology

During this period work was continued on analyzing the use of the shield for the thermal energy storage in the PULSAR reactor design and it was found that this design approach was also applicable to the Li-self-cooled V-alloy structure blanket option. The ARIES-IV toroidal blanket final report was completed. The conceptual design for a 2in x 8in distributed gyrotron window was completed and long lead parts are on order. A dedicated DiMES experiment was successfully run in DIII-D. Useful material erosion and redeposition results were obtained and input for modeling analysis
