Abstract
Dust produced by the last 1000 shots in Tore-Supra has been characterized. The measured mean equivalent diameter is 2.7 mum, comparable to other tokam aks. The dust surface density Varies from 2000 mg/m(2) on the bottom of the Vessel to 15 mg/mm(2) on the remaining surfaces. The carbon dust sampling in Tore-Supra revealed some nano-structures which have been identified as f ullerenes. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
