First Access to ELM-free Negative Triangularity at Low Aspect Ratio
A. O. Nelson, C. Vincent, H. Anand +12
A plasma scenario with negative triangularity (NT) shaping is achieved on MAST-U for the first time. While edge localized modes (ELMs) are eventually suppressed as the triangularit…

Assessment of vertical stability for negative triangularity pilot plants
S. Guizzo, A. O. Nelson, C. Hansen +2
Negative triangularity (NT) tokamak configurations may be more susceptible to magneto-hydrodynamic instability, posing challenges for recent reactor designs centered around their f…
