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…
Comparison of filament properties in real-size GBS simulations and experiments of TCV-X21
Y. Wang, C. Wüthrich, C. Theiler +7
A direct quantitative comparison of Scrape-Off Layer (SOL) filament properties from fluid turbulence simulations using the GBS code and from experiments on the TCV tokamak is perfo…
A novel understanding of the role of plasma-molecular kinetics on divertor power exhaust
N. Osborne, K. Verhaegh, D. Moulton +12
During detachment, a buffer of neutral atoms and molecules builds up between the target and the ionising plasma. Collisions between the plasma and the molecules play an important r…
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…
