Characterization of density fluctuations during the search for an I-mode regime on the DIII-D tokamak [PDF]
The I-mode regime, routinely observed on the Alcator C-Mod tokamak, is characterized by an edge energy transport barrier without an accompanying particle barrier and with broadband instabilities, known as weakly coherent modes (WCM), believed to regulate

Deuterium retention behaviors of boronization films at DIII-D divertor surface
Boron coating of plasma-facing components (PFCs) is widely used in fusion devices to form surface coatings and chemical compounds on the PFCs, thus suppressing plasma contamination by impurities such as oxygen, carbon, and tungsten.

Restoration of the DIII-D solenoid [PDF]
The DIII-D tokamak has been operated since June 1995 with constrained ohmic heating capability as imposed by the abandonment of half of it`s solenoid system due to a cooling water leak. The solenoid is comprised of A and B windings with separate multiple power leads to each. The cooling water leak occurred in the lead of the B winding.

Interpretation of runaway electron synchrotron and bremsstrahlung images
The crescent spot shape observed in DIII-D runaway electron synchrotron radiation images is shown to result from the high degree of anisotropy in the emitted radiation, the finite spectral range of the camera and the distribution of runaways.

Dust Studies in DIII-D Tokamak [PDF]
Studies of submicron dust using Mie scattering from Nd:YAG lasers and video data of micron to sub‐millimeter sized dust on DIII‐D tokamak have provided the first data of dust sources and transport during tokamak discharges. During normal operation on DIII‐D dust observation rates are low, a few events per discharge or less.

Understanding the effect resonant magnetic perturbations have on ELMs
All current estimations of the energy released by type I ELMs indicate that, in order to ensure an adequate lifetime of the divertor targets on ITER, a mechanism is required to decrease the amount of energy released by an ELM, or to eliminate ELMs ...

Top Launch for Higher Off-axis Electron Cyclotron Current Drive Efficiency [PDF]
Efficient off-axis current drive is crucial for economic, steady-state tokamak fusion power plants. “Top Launch” electron cyclotron current drive (ECCD) is one promising method for driving strong off-axis current to achieve the desired broad current ...

Results from core-edge experiments in high Power, high performance plasmas on DIII-D
Significant challenges to reducing divertor heat flux in highly powered near-double null divertor (DND) hybrid plasmas, while still maintaining both high performance metrics and low enough density for application of RF heating, are identified.

DIII-D advanced tokamak research overview [PDF]
Recent progress in the development of long pulse, high performance discharges on the DIII-D tokamak is reviewed. This is highlighted by a discharge achieving simultaneously a ?N H of 9, bootstrap current fraction of 0.5 and non-inductive current fraction of 0.75, sustained for 16 energy confinement times.
