Abstract
Radiation effects on key components of diagnostic systems expected to be subjected to high neutron and gamma fluxes and fluences are being examined in irradiation tests to evaluate and establish an ITER-relevant database to support the design. A comprehensive irradiation database has been accumulated and permits conclusions to be drawn on the application of these components in ITER. The design studies on prototypical assemblies of diagnostic components are continuing based on the irradiation data bases, neutronics calculations for evaluating irradiation environment of diagnostic components and required specification of diagnostic systems. These studies will aid the recognition of detailed requirements of diagnostic systems leading to more specific irradiation tests on diagnostic components.
