Density steps provided stable reference plasma conditions whilst density scans up to the point of detachment revealed the sputtering threshold behaviour of the dominant sputtering species. Tungsten gross erosion was quantified via the common WI 400.9 nm line and correlated with the residual gas content. }, year = {2020}, journal = {Physica Scripta}, volume = {95}, pages = {014060}, month = {03/2020}, publisher = {University of Amsterdam}, address = {Amsterdam, Netherlands}, doi = {10.1088/1402-4896/ab606c}, language = {eng}, }
