Pellet-Size Scaling of Quasi-Steady-State Plasma Performance in Wendelstein 7-X

Keisuke Fujii, Edgardo Villalobos Granados, Maryam Huck +11

A continuous cryogenic-pellet injector has been used to realize long-pulse high-performance plasmas in Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X). A hydrogen ice pellet deposits particles directly in…

Prevention of core particle depletion in stellarators by turbulence

H. Thienpondt, J. M. García-Regaña, I. Calvo +11

In reactor-relevant plasmas, neoclassical transport drives an outward particle flux in the core of large stellarators and predicts strongly hollow density profiles. However, this t…

Quantification of systematic errors in the electron density and temperature measured with Thomson scattering at W7-X

Philipp Nelde, Golo Fuchert, Ekkehard Pasch +9

The electron density and temperature profiles measured with Thomson scattering at the stellarator Wendelstein 7-X show features which seem to be unphysical, but so far could not be…
