Since the ionized particles are confined by the magnetic field and have high sticking coefficient due to sheath acceleration, they are redeposited in the gap edge. 3

Dominant interaction occurs within a hydrogenated C layer and Be deposition. Interaction layer tends to move from the C layer to the Be deposition layer with increasing Be coverage and decreasing D impact energy. 24

C atoms are emitted through physical sputtering mechanism. With increasing temperature, CD y emission is strongly enhanced. At 8 K, a maximum value of the emission yield is observed in the energy range of ev, where CD y s are more emitted with decreasing D impact energy. Clearly, D uptake in the C layer induces sputtering of C atoms at energies much less than the threshold energy for physical sputtering. At 2 K, the numbers of emitted C and CD y increase monotonously with increasing D energy. If there is no uptake of D in the layer (D/(C+D)=), hydrocarbon emission is very rare and sputtering of C atoms shows a clear threshold h ldfor physical sputtering. C emission yield..

[8] R.P.Doerner et al., Phys.Scr. T28(27)5. The reduction rate increases monotonically with decreasing D impact energy. This explain the ion energy dependence of decay time of chemical CD light emission observed [9]. [9] D.Nishijima et al., J.Nucl.Mater (27)26. The reduction rate changes in the different manner from the experiments with increasing surface temperature. The calculation indicates a maximum reduction rate at ~8 K where the CD y emission yield peaks. 26

Angular distribution of ions is influenced by gyromotion of the ions; most probable angles of the distribution are 2 o ~8 o, which are much larger than the magnetic angles intersecting ti the wall. Average angle of magnetic field lines intersecting the first wall equipped with blanket modules is chosen to be 5 o, which h results in an incident id angle of ~2 o to the first wall. Ion flux at the first wall is assumed to decay exponentially from the grid edge to the wall. The decay length is taken to be cm, 3 cm and cm. 29

Asymmetric erosion between the inner and outer targets is observed, depending on the incident ion energy. Erosion of the inner target is dominated by chemical sputtering, a maximum yield of which occurs at the strike point. Erosion of the first wall is at least by factors of smaller than that of the divertor targets. Localized gas puffing and recycling at the top of the first wall causes sputtering flux to be strongly decreased. If decay length of ion flux between the grid edge and the first wall is taken to be cm, the sputtering flux by ions is high enough to be comparable to the flux by CX neutrals. With decreasing length, the ion flux is strongly reduced, showing complicated profile closely related to the local distance between the grid edge and the first wall. 3

A part of C atoms is promptly ionized and redeposit in the vicinity of the birthplace. The other part is transported away from it and some of them distribute out of the divertor. CD y is rather limited within the private flux region (PFR) of the divertor. Be atoms are ionized and subsequently transported along the magnetic field lines for a long distance, therefore, they distribute over the whole area of the machine. 3

Net erosion and deposition profiles of C, CD y and Be, calculated as the flux difference between redeposition and re-erosion. C deposits in the inner divertor are strongly re- eroded except for the dome where sputtering is negligibly small. Position near the strike point, as well as the dome, is a deposition zone whereas the position far from it is an erosion zone. Be deposits on the inner and outer targets are strongly re-eroded due to low threshold energy for physical sputtering. The top of the first wall and the inner dome are deposition zones. 32

Using surface temperature and D energy on the inner and outer targets and the first wall, D/C and D/Be values are calculated as a function of the position.

The surface temperature depending on the position on the target is taken from [3], where the temperature were calculated assuming CFC, not W, with the thickness of mm.

The surface temperature at each position is kept constant after discharge as well as during it. The trap concentration strongly depends on the 5 material and additional traps may be produced in the Distance from strike point (m) near-surface region due to high D fluxes to the target, resulting in a depth-dependent concentration.

Mobile T atoms dominate the T retention in the outer target due to its high temperature leading to detrapping from the trap and subsequent diffusion inside the bulk. The T atoms are retained ten times more in the outer target than in the inner target during discharge, whereas sufficiently after discharge the T retention is reduced due to surface recombination of mobile atoms. From the distribution of retained D atoms during and after discharge, the T retention in the inner and outer targets are estimated by taking the atomic mass difference between D and T into account, and assuming toroidal symmetry. 4
