A Review of Recent Developments in Atomic Processes for Divertors and Edge Plasmas

open access: yes, 1995
The most promising concepts for power and particle control in tokamaks and other fusion experiments rely upon atomic processes to transfer the power and momentum from the edge plasma to the plasma chamber walls. This places a new emphasis on processes at

Strong ExB shear flows in the pedestal region in H-mode plasma

open access: yes, 2006
We report the first experimental observation of stationary zonal flows in the pedestal region of the H-mode plasma in the H-1 toroidal heliac. Strong peaks in E_r shear mark the top and foot of the density pedestal.

Toroidal modeling of Alfvén eigenmodes excited by runaway electrons in DIII-D and ITER

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
The non-perturbative MHD-kinetic hybrid code MARS-K (Liu et al 2014 Phys. Plasmas 21 056105) is updated to include relativistic effects for kinetic fast particles, enabling the code to model excitation of Alfvén eigenmodes (AEs) by runaway electrons (REs)

Real time detection of multiple stable MHD eigenmode growth rates towards kink/tearing modes avoidance in DIII-D tokamak plasmas

open access: yesNuclear Fusion, 2023
Real time detection of time evolving growth rates of multiple stable magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) eigenmodes has been achieved in DIII-D tokamak experiments via multi-mode three-dimensional (3D) active MHD spectroscopy.

Analytic Criteria for Power Exhaust in Divertors due to Impurity Radiation

open access: yes, 1995
Present divertor concepts for next step experiments such ITER and TPX rely upon impurity and hydrogen radiation to transfer the energy from the edge plasma to the main chamber and divertor chamber walls. The efficiency of these processes depends strongly

Calculations of Energy Losses due to Atomic Processes in Tokamaks with Applications to the ITER Divertor

open access: yes, 1995
Reduction of the peak heat loads on the plasma facing components is essential for the success of the next generation of high fusion power tokamaks such as the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) 1 .

Visualizing DIII-D Tokarnak Magnetic Field Lines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We demonstrate the use of a combination of perceptually effective techniques for visualizing magnetic field data from the DIII-D Tokamak. These techniques can be implemented to run very efficiently on machines with hardware support for OpenGL ...

Turbulent drifts of impurity ions as an explanation for anomalous radial transport in the far-SOL of DIII-D

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Successful fusion reactor operation relies on minimal core contamination by impurities, otherwise too much power may be radiated and harm performance. This requires reliable predictions of impurity transport from the scrape-off layer (SOL) into the core,

Experimental Measurement of ECH Deposition Broadening: Beyond Anomalous Transport

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
This work provides a first experimental measurement of broadened ECH deposition on the DIIID tokamak. As seen in theory[1] and simulation[2], refraction by edge density fluctuations shifts the path of RF waves, altering ECH and ECCD deposition.
