Interpretation of divertor ion temperature measurements from an attached towards a detached regime

Patrick Blanchard, Basil Duval, Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Olivier Claude Martin Février, Lorenzo Martinelli, Sophie Danielle Angelica Gorno, Claudia Colandrea, Christine Stollberg, Benjamin Alexandre Vincent, Luke Simons, Massimo Carpita, Artur Perek

We present simultaneous profiles of the poloidal distribution of electron temperature and density (Te, ne), the poloidal emissivity distributions of a range of spectral lines together with the corresponding ion temperatures, Ti, in the TCV divertor plasma. ...

Beam homogeneity of caesium seeded SPIDER using a direct beamlet current measurement

Basile Marie Jacques Pouradier Duteil

The ITER Heating Neutral Beam (HNB) source prototype SPIDER (Source for the Production of Ions of Deuterium Extracted from a Radio frequency plasma), hosted at the Neutral Beam Test Facility (NBTF) in Padova, Italy, has recently started operating with evap ...

Exact expression for the hot plasma conductivity kernel in configuration space

Jonathan Graves, Joey Rubin, Mike Machielsen

Electromagnetic perturbations of a magnetized plasma cause induced charges and currents, collectively known as the plasma response. In the frequency domain, this response is a non-local functional of the electric field. The associated integral kernel, know ...

Power exhaust and core-divertor compatibility of the baffled snowflake divertor in TCV

Basil Duval, Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Umar Sheikh, Olivier Claude Martin Février, Sophie Danielle Angelica Gorno, Claudia Colandrea, Luke Simons

A baffled snowflake minus low-field side (SF-LFS) is geometrically-optimised in tokamak a` configuration variable, increasing divertor neutral pressure, to evaluate the roles of divertor closure (comparing with an unbaffled SF-LFS) and magnetic geometry (c ...

Essay: Overcoming the Obstacles to a Magnetic Fusion Power Plant

Ambrogio Fasoli

Fusion occurs when light nuclei combine to form heavier nuclei. The energy released in this process powers the stars and can provide humankind with a safe, sustainable, and clean source of baseload electricity, a valuable tool in the fight against climate ...

Relevance of E x B drifts for particle and heat transport in divertors

Holger Reimerdes

Radial electric fields up to similar to 4 kV m(-1) are observed in the boundary between the private flux region (PFR) and the scrape-off layer (SOL) driving E X B drifts between the inner and outer targets at speeds up to 2.8 km s(-1) in the Tokamak a conf ...
