Although ohmic H-modes have long been produced on the TCV tokamak and the effects of ELMs at the divertor targets studied in some detail [1], no attempt has yet been made to model the scrape-off layer (SOL) in these plasmas. This contribution describes det ...
Metallic mirrors will be essential components of all optical spectroscopy and imaging systems for plasma diagnosis that will be used at the next-step magnetic fusion experiment, International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). Any change of the mir ...
There is an increasing body of evidence that the energy lost from diverted tokamak plasmas due to edge localized mode (ELM) activity may not be confined solely to deposition on divertor components. Plasma-facing surfaces in the main confinement chamber als ...
Probe measurements of electrostatic plasma fluctuations in the scrape-off layer (SOL) of the TCV tokamak are compared with the results from two-dimensional interchange turbulence simulations. Excellent agreement is found for both the radial variation of st ...
This paper presents a short overview of current trends and progress in integrated ELM modelling. First, the concept of integrated ELM modelling is introduced, various interpretations of it are given and the need for it is discussed. Then follows an overvie ...
