Characterisation of the L-mode Scrape Off Layer in MAST: decay lengths
arXiv:1506.04530 · doi:10.1088/0029-5515/56/1/016006
Abstract
This work presents a detailed characterisation of the MAST Scrape Off Layer in L-mode. Scans in line averaged density, plasma current and toroidal magnetic field were performed. A comprehensive and integrated study of the SOL was allowed by the use of a wide range of diagnostics. In agreement with previous results, an increase of the line averaged density induced a broadening of the midplane density profile.
