Tungsten erosion and redeposition in the all-tungsten divertor of ASDEX Upgrade [PDF]
Net erosion and deposition of tungsten (W) in the ASDEX Upgrade divertor were determined after the 2007 campaign by using thin W marker stripes. ASDEX Upgrade had full-W plasma-facing components during this campaign.

The quasi-continuous exhaust regime in ASDEX Upgrade and JET
The quasi-continuous exhaust (QCE) regime is a type-I ELM-free high confinement regime obtained at high plasma shaping and high separatrix density. A comparison with various ELM-free regimes in the literature is presented together with potential physics ...

Tungsten redistribution patterns in ASDEX Upgrade
In ASDEX Upgrade tungsten is used as a high-Z plasma facing material. Its erosion, migration and subsequent deposition have been studied by analysis of a set of customised marker tiles, which was installed in the divertor and at the central column for ...

Experiments and modelling of negative triangularity ASDEX Upgrade plasmas in view of DTT scenarios
The paper presents experimental and modelling results of a comparison of negative (NT) and positive (PT) triangularity ASDEX Upgrade (AUG) discharges using the plasma shapes presently foreseen in the DTT tokamak, under construction in Italy. This work is

SOLPS-ITER modification for impurity transport modelling in the tokamak pedestal region
Kinetic corrections to SOLPS-ITER fluid equations are made to extend their applicability for description of the neoclassical part of impurity transport to collisionless regimes of the main ions.

X-point radiation, its control and an ELM suppressed radiating regime at the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak
Future fusion reactors require a safe, steady state divertor operation. The required detached operation is, in tokamaks with metal walls, usually achieved by seeding of impurities, such as nitrogen.

Modelling of carbon transport in the outer divertor plasma of ASDEX upgrade
Carbon transport in the ASDEX Upgrade outer divertor plasma is investigated in numerical simulations. The SOLPS5.0 code package is used to model the scrape-off layer plasma in a set of repeated lower-single-null L-mode discharges.
