Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In this paper, a literature review on the application and features of boronization in tokamak-type devices is presented, and a methodology for preparing the vacuum chamber of the KTM tokamak for plasma experiments using a carboranebased boronization system is substantiated. The technical implementation of the process under glow discharge conditions is described, including the design of the vapor delivery system with a heated receiver and the transport line on the KTM tokamak. A project of the diagnostic complex under development for real-time monitoring of the environment purity, combining mass spectrometry and optical monitoring of the boron emission line, is presented.
