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…

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…
