Initial Fulcher band observations from high resolution spectroscopy in the MAST-U divertor
N. Osborne, K. Verhaegh, M. D. Bowden +8
High resolution Fulcher band spectroscopy was used in the MAST-U divertors during Super-X and elongated conventional divertor density ramps with fuelling from the mi…
The role of plasma-atom and molecule interactions on power \& particle balance during detachment on the MAST Upgrade Super-X divertor
Kevin Verhaegh, Bruce Lipschultz, James Harrison +12
This paper shows first quantitative analysis of the detachment processes in the MAST Upgrade Super-X divertor (SXD). We identify an unprecedented impact of plasma-molecular interac…
Investigating the impact of the molecular charge-exchange rate on detached SOLPS-ITER simulations
Kevin Verhaegh, Aelwyn C Williams, David Moulton +7
Plasma-molecular interactions generate molecular ions which react with the plasma and contribute to detachment through molecular activated recombination (MAR), reducing the ion tar…
The role of plasma-molecule interactions on power and particle balance during detachment on the TCV tokamak
Kevin Verhaegh, Bruce Lipschultz, James Harrison +14
This paper shows experimental results from the TCV tokamak that indicate plasma-molecule interactions involving and possibly play an important role as sinks of energy…
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…
