Detachment scalings derived from 1D scrape-off-layer simulations
Thomas Body, Thomas Eich, Adam Q Kuang +4
Fusion power plants will require detachment to mitigate sputtering and keep divertor heat fluxes at tolerable levels. Controlling detachment on these devices may require the use of…

The separatrix operational space of next-step fusion experiments: From ASDEX Upgrade data to SPARC scenarios
Thomas Eich, Thomas Body, Michael Faitsch +13
Fusion power plants require ELM-free, detached operation to prevent divertor damage and erosion. The separatrix operational space (SepOS) is proposed as a tool for identifying acce…
