- Quantitative tritium inventory in dust particles from campaigns in the JET tokamak with the carbon wall (2007–2009) and the ITER-like wall (ILW 2011–2012) were determined by the liquid scintillation counter and the full combustion method. A feature of this full combustion method is that dust particles were covered by a tin (Sn) which reached 2100 K during combustion under oxygen flow. The specific tritium inventory for samples from JET with carbon and with metal walls was measured and found to be similar. However, the total tritium inventory in dust particles from the ILW experiment was significantly smaller in comparison to the carbon wall due to the lower amount of dust particles generated in the presence of metal walls.

- A build-up of co-deposits in remote areas of the divertor can contribute significantly to the overall fuel retention. The control of plasma-material interactions via the study and understanding of erosion-deposition of PFCs provides vital information for the efficient future operation of ITER. The major aim of this work is to reveal details of beryllium deposition and fuel (deuterium) retention on divertor plasma-facing components removed from the JET ITER-Like Wall divertor after cumulative exposure during the first two (ILW-1+2) and all three (ILW-1+2+3) campaigns. Ion beam analysis techniques such as Rutherford backscattering spectrometry, nuclear reaction analysis and proton induced x-ray emission have been extensively used for post-mortem analyses of selected tiles from JET following each campaign and can provide relevant information on plasma-surface interactions like tungsten erosion, beryllium deposition and plasma fuel retention with divertor tiles via implantation or co-deposition. The studied divertor tiles represent a unique set of samples, which have been exposed to plasmas since the beginning of the JET-ILW operation for three successive plasma campaigns. This is a comprehensive comparison of divertor components after these operation periods. The results presented summarise deposition and fuel retention on Tiles 4 (inner base) and 6 (outer base). Although the deposition pattern is similar to that determined after individual campaigns, D retention is not a cumulative process and is determined mainly by the last campaign, and the total Be deposit after the 3 campaigns (i.e. data 1+2+3=tile exposed 2011-2016) is less than the sum of the deposits after each individual campaign (sum 1+2+3) for Tile 4 but greater for Tile 6.

- The manuscript presents an overview of the erosion and deposition data in the inner and outer JET divertor observed during the first three ITER-like wall campaigns (JET-ILW1, JET-ILW2, JET-ILW3). Erosion and deposition were studied using core samples cut out from divertor tiles. For the studied samples a similar general deposition pattern was observed in all three campaigns: More than 60% of the total deposition occurred in the upper region of the inner divertor on tiles 0 and 1, where Be was transported and deposited from the scrape-off layer. High erosion was observed only on tile 5. In JET-ILW2 and 3, erosion together with high power fluxes was observed in the outer divertor at the bottom of tile 7. Additionally, deposition peaks were observed on the sloping parts of tiles 4 and 6, which were more pronounced in JET-ILW2 and 3 due to placing the strike point more often on these tiles. The deposits consisted primarily of Be, with some additional D and C. Deposition rates were observed to decrease from campaign to campaign, with the C deposition rate decreasing the most, more than 2 times from JET-ILW1 to JET-ILW3. D retention up to levels of similar to 1 at% was observed up to large depths in the W protective coatings in all campaigns.
