A novel hydrogenic spectroscopic technique for inferring the role of plasma-molecule interaction on power and particle balance during detached conditions

K Verhaegh, B Lipschultz, C Bowman +13

Detachment, an important mechanism for reducing target heat deposition, is achieved through reductions in power, particle and momentum; which are induced through plasma-atom and pl…

A study of the influence of plasma-molecule interactions on particle balance during detachment

K Verhaegh, B Lipschultz, J R Harrison +9

In this work we provide experimental insights into the impact of plasma-molecule interactions on the target ion flux decrease during divertor detachment achieved through a core den…

Novel inferences of ionisation & recombination for particle/power balance during detached discharges using deuterium Balmer line spectroscopy

K. Verhaegh, B. Lipschultz, B. P. Duval +4

The physics of divertor detachment is determined by divertor power, particle and momentum balance. This work provides a novel analysis technique of the Balmer line series to obtain…

The role of particle, energy and momentum losses in 1D simulations of divertor detachment

B D Dudson, J Allen, T Body +6

A new 1D divertor plasma code, SD1D, has been used to examine the role of recombination, radiation, and momentum exchange in detachment. Neither momentum or power losses by themsel…

An improved understanding of the roles of atomic processes and power balance in divertor target ion current loss during detachment

Kevin Verhaegh, Bruce Lipschultz, Basil Duval +16

The process of divertor detachment, whereby heat and particle fluxes to divertor surfaces are strongly diminished, is required to reduce heat loading and erosion in a magnetic fusi…
