Enhanced confinement in diverted negative-triangularity L-mode plasmas in TCV

Olivier Sauter, Stefano Coda, Alessandro Pau, Benoît Labit, Laurie Porte, Antoine Pierre Emmanuel Alexis Merle, Umar Sheikh, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui, Alessandro Marinoni, Matteo Vallar, Filippo Bagnato

The favorable confinement properties of negative-triangularity (NT) tokamak configurations were discovered in the TCV tokamak in the late 1990s and were documented over the two following decades, through investigations of predominantly electron-heated plas ...

The power threshold of H-mode access in mixed hydrogen-tritium and pure tritium plasmas at JET with ITER-like wall

Henri Weisen

The heating power to access the high confinement mode (H-mode), P (LH), scales approximately inversely with the isotope mass of the main ion plasma species as found in (protonic) hydrogen, deuterium and tritium plasmas in many fusion facilities over the la ...

First in-core gamma spectroscopy experiments in a zero power reactor

Andreas Pautz, Vincent Pierre Lamirand, Oskari Ville Pakari, Pavel Frajtag, Axel Guy Marie Laureau

Gamma rays in nuclear reactors, arising either from nuclear reactions or decay processes, significantly contribute to the heating and dose of the reactor components. Zero power research reactors offer the possibility to measure gamma rays in a purely neutr ...

Physics and performance of the I-mode regime over an expanded operating space on Alcator C-Mod

Christian Gabriel Theiler, Yu Lin

New results on the I-mode regime of operation on the Alcator C-Mod tokamak are reported. This ELM-free regime features high energy confinement and a steep temperature pedestal, while particle confinement remains at L-mode levels, giving stationary density ...

Fast particle loss channels in Wendelstein 7-X

Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper, David Pfefferlé, Jonathan Marc Philippe Faustin

One of the main goals of Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) is to demonstrate the fast particle confinement properties of the quasi-isodynamic stellarator concept. Fast particle populations will be produced either by Neutral Beam Injection (NBI) or by minority Ion Cyc ...
