Shattered pellet injection experiments at JET in support of the ITER disruption mitigation system design

Abstract A series of experiments have been executed at JET to assess the efficacy newly installed shattered pellet injection (SPI) system in mitigating effects disruptions. Issues, important for ITER disruption mitigation system, such as thermal load mitigation, avoidance runaway electron (RE) formation, radiation asymmetries during quench electromagnetic control and RE energy dissipation addressed over a large parameter range. The efficiency has examined various SPI strategies. paper summarises results from these discusses their implications scheme.
