Exposure of metal mirrors in the scrape-off layer of TEXTOR

• Large molybdenum mirrors have been exposed in the SOL of TEXTOR in order to simulate conditions relevant for ITER optical components. Distortions of the reflectivity - increase as well as decrease - are found in the erosion and deposition dominated areas, respectively. The changes are most pronounced in the near UV and level off in the IR and can partly be attributed to observed surface changes. A novel periscope system was installed and mirrors exposed in a pilot experiment to simulate the transmission of light to distant sensors in ITER.
