Validation of 2D T e and n e measurements made with Helium imaging spectroscopy in the volume of the TCV divertor

Basil Duval, Patrick Blanchard, Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui, Artur Perek, Hugo De Oliveira, Filippo Bagnato, Lorenzo Martinelli, Sophie Danielle Angelica Gorno, Claudia Colandrea, Nicola Offeddu, Dmytry Mykytchuk

Multi-spectral imaging of helium atomic emission (HeMSI) has been used to create 2D poloidal maps of T-e and ne in TCV's divertor. To achieve these measurements, TCV's MANTIS multispectral cameras (Perek et al 2019 Rev. Sci. Instrum. 90 123514) simultaneou ...

Tritium removal from JET-ILW after T and D-T experimental campaigns

Henri Weisen, Mikhail Maslov

After the second Deuterium-Tritium Campaign (DTE2) in the JET tokamak with the ITER-Like Wall (ILW) and full tritium campaigns that preceded and followed after the DTE2, a sequence of fuel recovery methods was applied to promote tritium removal from wall c ...

JET D-T scenario with optimized non-thermal fusion

Javier García Hernández, Mikhail Maslov, Haomin Sun, Michele Marin

In JET deuterium-tritium (D-T) plasmas, the fusion power is produced through thermonuclear reactions and reactions between thermal ions and fast particles generated by neutral beam injection (NBI) heating or accelerated by electromagnetic wave heating in t ...

A novel measurement of marginal Alfven eigenmode stability during high power auxiliary heating in JET

Ambrogio Fasoli, Mario Ludovico Podesta, Paulo Giovane Paschoali Pereira Puglia

The interaction of Alfven eigenmodes (AEs) and energetic particles is one of many important factors determining the success of future tokamaks. In JET, eight in-vessel antennas were installed to actively probe stable AEs with frequencies ranging 25-250 kHz ...

Electron-cyclotron resonance heating and current drive source for flux-driven gyrokinetic simulations of tokamaks

Stefano Coda, Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Joan Decker, Jean Arthur Cazabonne

Electromagnetic waves that resonate with the cyclotron motion of electrons in a magnetized plasma can efficiently transfer their momentum and energy to the plasma. This is routinely used to heat or drive current in tokamak plasmas. The impact of this local ...

Analysis and modelling of momentum transport based on NBI modulation experiments at ASDEX Upgrade

Basil Duval, Emiliano Fable

The prediction of plasma rotation is of high interest for fusion research due to the effects of the rotation upon magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities, impurities, and turbulent transport in general. In this work, an analysis method was studied and vali ...
