The impact of non-local parallel electron transport on plasma-impurity reaction rates in tokamak scrape-off layer plasmas
Dominic Power, Stefan Mijin, Kevin Verhaegh +2
Plasma-impurity reaction rates are a crucial part of modelling tokamak scrape-off layer (SOL) plasmas. To avoid calculating the full set of rates for the large number of important…
Blob interaction in 2D scrape off layer simulations
Gregor Decristoforo, Fulvio Militello, Odd Erik Garcia +4
Interaction of coherent structures known as blobs in the scrape-off layer of magnetic confinement fusion devices is investigated. Isolated and interacting seeded blobs as well as f…
Dynamics of scrape-off layer filaments in detached conditions
David Schwörer, Nick R. Walkden, Benjamin D. Dudson +3
The here presented work studies the dynamics of filaments using 3D fluid simulations in the presence of detached background profiles. It was found that evolving the neutrals on the…
Solution to a collisionless shallow-angle magnetic presheath with kinetic ions
Alessandro Geraldini, Felix I. Parra, Fulvio Militello
Using a kinetic model for the ions and adiabatic electrons, we solve a steady state, electron-repelling magnetic presheath in which a uniform magnetic field makes a small angle $α\…
Interpretation of scrape-off layer profile evolution and first-wall ion flux statistics on JET using a stochastic framework based on filamentary motion
N. R. Walkden, A. Wynn, F. Militello +6
This paper presents the use of a novel modelling technique based around intermittent transport due to filament motion, to interpret experimental profile and fluctuation data in the…
Scrape Off Layer profiles interpreted with filament dynamics
F. Militello, J. T. Omotani
A theoretical framework is developed to link the density profiles in the Scrape Off Layer (SOL) with the fluctuations (filaments) that generate them. The framework is based on the…
L-mode filament characteristics on MAST as a function of plasma current measured using visible imaging
A. Kirk, A. J. Thornton, J. R. Harrison +2
Clear filamentary structures are observed at the edge of tokamak plasmas. These filaments are ejected out radially and carry plasma in the far Scrape Off Layer (SOL) region, where…
