I thought this was encouraging (from the confinement and reactions verification standpoints), as well as wondered if they have implemented any of the instrumentation concepts in WB-8 ISO mapping and profiling.

IEF Confinement Diagnostics
Seems to be a rehash from the 09 IEC Japan conference.

I know we beat this up before, but I think it speaks well to ION profiling across the core. Notice the slight up at the "crust" area on the profile.
This seems to speak to the annealing process, and higher density at the edge helping control upscatters. To bad we can;t see the nuetrals against the ion profile. But it does beg the question on what are all the factors driving up ion density in the crust/mantle area.
And for your further reading pleasure, this link gives you the current UW presentations listing;
