Observation and Modelling of the Onset of Parametric Decay Instabilities during Gyrotron Operation at ASDEX Upgrade [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2019
We investigate parametric decay instabilities (PDIs) occurring for gyrotron radiation near the upper hybrid resonance at the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak.

Overview of physics studies on ASDEX Upgrade [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Fusion, 2019
Abstract The ASDEX Upgrade (AUG) programme, jointly run with the EUROfusion MST1 task force, continues to significantly enhance the physics base of ITER and DEMO. Here, the full tungsten wall is a key asset for extrapolating to future devices.

Physics of the electric field in the scrape-off layer in ASDEX Upgrade L-mode discharges and comparison to experiments

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2022
The electric field in the Scrape-Off Layer (SOL) of fusion plasmas is a key quantity affecting the local plasma transport and possibly also the overall plasma confinement. However, the physics determining the SOL electric field is experimentally not well

Overview of ASDEX Upgrade results [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Fusion, 2003
Recent results from the ASDEX Upgrade experimental campaigns 2001 and 2002 are presented. An improved understanding of energy and particle transport emerges in terms of a ‘critical gradient’ model for the temperature gradients. Coupling this to particle diffusion explains most of the observed behaviour of the density profiles, in particular, the ...

Analysis and expansion of the quasi-continuous exhaust (QCE) regime in ASDEX Upgrade

open access: yesNuclear Fusion, 2023
The quasi-continuous exhaust (QCE) regime, formerly known as either type-II ELM or small ELM regime is studied in ASDEX Upgrade. The regime is a natural type-I ELM-free H-mode.

Experiments and modelling on ASDEX Upgrade and WEST in support of tool development for tokamak reactor armour melting assessments

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2022
The risk of metallic armour melting constitutes a major concern for ITER and DEMO. Combined computational and experimental effort has led to a successful understanding of melt dynamics in present-day tokamaks, but there remain unexplored melting regimes ...

Fusion Materials Development at Forschungszentrum Jülich

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 22, Issue 6, June 2020., 2020
In fusion material research, the focus has been twofold‐plasma facing and structural materials allowing to withstand the extreme conditions such as neutron bombardment and high heat fluxes. In this contribution, the background for the choice of tungsten as first wall material is given and the advanced materials developed at Forschungszentrum Jülich ...

Impact of drifts in the ASDEX upgrade upper open divertor using SOLPS‐ITER

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, Volume 60, Issue 5-6, June-July 2020., 2020
Abstract SOLPS‐ITER L‐mode‐like simulations with the full set of currents and drift velocities activated, and fluid neutrals have been carried out to interpret experimental results obtained in AUG. Drifts are critical to quantitatively reproduce the experimental results; however, simulations without drifts can also reproduce some trends qualitatively ...

Effect of magnetic perturbation fields on power decay length in EMC3-EIRENE simulations and comparison to experiment in ASDEX upgrade

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2019
Previous simulation results for the tokamak ASDEX Upgrade have shown that Magnetic Perturbation (MP) fields could lead to a decrease of the peak heat flux onto the divertor targets. However, experimentally, such a decrease has not been observed.

The ASDEX Upgrade discharge schedule [PDF]

open access: yesFusion Engineering and Design, 2007
Abstract ASDEX Upgrade's recently commissioned discharge control system (DCS) marks the transition from a traditional programmed system to a highly flexible “data driven” one. The allocation of application processes (APs) to controllers, the interconnection of APs through uniquely named signals, and AP control parameter values are all defined as data,
