Long-pulse H-mode operation with stored-energy monitoring for detachment feedback control with a new lower tungsten divertor in EAST

Nuclear Fusion, 2023
One of the key challenges for future fusion research is to mitigate the high steady-state heat load on the divertor target plates, and divertor detachment offers a promising solution. The Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) has developed

Mechanism of enhanced ion temperature by impurity seeding in EAST H-mode plasma

Nuclear Fusion, 2023
Ion temperature ( T _i ) profiles are commonly observed to increase in peaking, leading to higher central T _i , after impurity seeding in the EAST H-mode plasma. Argon can be more efficient at raising T _i than neon.

Effects of low-Z and high-Z impurities on divertor detachment and plasma confinement

Nuclear Materials and Energy, 2017
The impurity-seeded detached divertor is essential for heat exhaust in ITER and other reactor-relevant devices. Dedicated experiments with injection of N2, Ne and Ar have been performed in DIII-D to assess the impact of the different impurities on ...
