An upper pressure limit for low-Z benign termination of runaway electron beams in TCV

M Hoppe, J Decker, U Sheikh +17

We present a model for the particle balance in the post-disruption runaway electron plateau phase of a tokamak discharge. The model is constructed with the help of, and applied to,…

2D electron density profile evolution during detachment in Super-X divertor L-mode discharges on MAST-U

N. Lonigro, R. S. Doyle, K. Verhaegh +12

2D electron density profiles obtained from coherence imaging spectroscopy in different MAST-U divertor conditions are compared. The data includes variations of strike point positio…

First demonstration of Super-X divertor exhaust control for transient heat load management in compact fusion reactors

B. Kool, K. Verhaegh, G. L. Derks +14

Nuclear fusion could offer clean, abundant energy. However, managing the immense power exhausted from the core fusion plasma towards the divertor remains a major challenge. This is…

First 2D electron density measurements using Coherence Imaging Spectroscopy in the MAST-U Super-X divertor

N. Lonigro, R. Doyle, J. S. Allcock +11

2D profiles of electron density and neutral temperature are inferred from multi-delay Coherence Imaging Spectroscopy data of divertor plasmas using a non-linear inversion technique…

Expulsion of runaway electrons using ECRH in the TCV tokamak

J. Decker, M. Hoppe, U. Sheikh +19

Runaway electrons (REs) are a concern for tokamak fusion reactors from discharge startup to termination. A sudden localized loss of a multi-megaampere RE beam can inflict severe da…
