The prospect of a new facility for plasma-surface interaction studies is presented. The unique features of this facility named GDMT-T are ability to generate both stationary plasma flux and transient events which simulate ITER ELM-mode operation and strong magnetic field on the target important for studies of dust and impurity migration. The experimental program of GDMT-T will include testing of plasma-facing components at ITER-relevant conditions and investigations of electron beam generation and beam-plasma interaction for application in the next generation of linear fusion facilities.
