Experiments on FTU with a liquid lithium limiter

During the year 2007, experiments have been carried on to test a Liquid Lithium Limiter (LLL) with capillary porous system (CPS) on the high field medium size tokamak FTU. Previous results [1] with LLL have shown that plasma discharges with lithized walls are remarkably cleaner than those with purely metallic or boronized ones: Z
