High-power TCV scenario for conventional and alternative divertor studies
K. Lee, C. Theiler, M. Carpita +20
Alternative divertor configurations (ADCs) must be evaluated under boundary plasma conditions approaching reactor-level values to be considered a reliable, physics-based solution f…
Detachment dynamics and disturbance rejection in the TCV X-Point Target divertor
M. Winkel, K. Verhaegh, B. Kool +11
The X-Point Target divertor is an alternative divertor configuration with a secondary X-point in its divertor volume. In this work, we investigate the dynamic response and disturba…
Initial observations in X-point target divertor discharges on MAST-U
N. Lonigro, K. Verhaegh, J. Harrison +14
The first high-power (> 3 MW) H-mode experiments using a double-null X-point-target (XPT) divertor configuration have been performed on MAST-U. The XPT geometry is obtained by comb…
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…
Divertor shaping with neutral baffling as a solution to the tokamak power exhaust challenge
K. Verhaegh, J. R. Harrison, D. Moulton +20
Exhausting power from the hot fusion core to the plasma-facing components is one of the biggest challenges in fusion energy. The MAST Upgrade tokamak uniquely integrates strong con…
