Current understanding of the processes underlying the triggering of and energy loss associated with type I ELMs

A. Kirk, D. Dunai, M. Dunne +7

The type I ELMy H-mode is the baseline operating scenario for ITER. While it is known that the type I ELM ultimately results from the peeling-ballooning instability, there is growi…

Energetic particle instabilities in fusion plasmas

S E Sharapov, B Alper, H L Berk +41

Remarkable progress has been made in diagnosing energetic particle instabilities on present-day machines and in establishing a theoretical framework for describing them. This overv…

Self-consistent simulation of plasma scenarios for ITER using a combination of 1.5D transport codes and free-boundary equilibrium codes

V Parail, R Albanese, R Ambrosino +20

Self-consistent transport simulation of ITER scenarios is a very important tool for the exploration of the operational space and for scenario optimisation. It also provides an asse…

Lessons learnt from ITER safety & licensing for DEMO and future nuclear fusion facilities

Neill Taylor, Pierre Cortes

One of the strong motivations for pursuing the development of fusion energy is its potentially low environmental impact and very good safety performance. But this safety and enviro…

Understanding the effect resonant magnetic perturbations have on ELMs

A. Kirk, I. T. Chapman, T. E. Evans +8

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 dec…

Dual view FIDA measurements on MAST

C. A. Michael, N. Conway, B. Crowley +11

A Fast Ion Deuterium Alpha (FIDA) spectrometer was installed on MAST to measure radially resolved information about the fast ion density and its distribution in energy and pitch an…
