Erosion and redeposition of eroded material was measured during the JET Mar
k I carbon divertor operational period from April 1994 until March 1995 on
the walls of the main chamber, the poloidal inner and outer wall limiters a
nd the divertor plates by quantitative surface layer analysis. Ni + Cr + Fe
is eroded predominantly from the inner vessel wall and Be from the outer v
essel wall. Carbon is eroded from the plasma exposed limiter faces and the
plasma exposed parts at the divertor strike points. The material eroded at
these areas is predominantly redeposited at the limiter sides and in the di
vertor in shadowed regions and the corners.
