Several modifications to existing escaping alpha scintillation detectors in TFTR will be needed before they could be used on ignited tokamaks such as CIT or ITER. The main difficulties are the large heat flux at the desired detector locations and the accumulated radiation damage to the scintillator itself. Constraints imposed by these problems can probably be overcome by using remotely movable (and removable) detectors.
