In a sequence of identical Ohmically heated discharges the evolution of wall material sources as well as that of residual impurity sources were studied by spectroscopic detection of suitable emission lines of corresponding neutral atom and singly charged ion species in the visible spectral range. The evolution of divertor surface composition resulting from wall material migration occurred at a similar time scale as previously observed in Be migration experiments in the JET carbon wall configuration. In contrast to these experiments with initial Be evaporation on the carbon main chamber wall, the JET ILW migration experiment is characterised by a continuous Be wall source because the main chamber wall now consists of bulk Be components. The experiment further reveals unexpectedly high Be deposition at W divertor surfaces already during preceding limiter discharges for system commissioning, which has implications for predictive modelling of the expected fuel retention in ITER.}, year = {2013}, journal = {Journal of Nuclear Materials}, volume = {438, Supplement}, pages = {S262 - S266}, url = {http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022311513000500}, doi = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jnucmat.2013.01.042}, note = {Proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Plasma-Surface Interactions in Controlled Fusion Devices}, language = {eng}, }
