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…

Impact of triangularity on edge transport and divertor detachment: a SOLPS-ITER study of TCV L-mode plasmas

Fabio Mombelli, Andrea Mastrogirolamo, Elena Tonello +7

Negative triangularity (NT) magnetic configurations have recently gained attention as a promising route to achieve H-mode-like confinement without edge-localized modes (ELMs) and w…

Comparison of detachment in Ohmic plasmas with positive and negative triangularity

O. Février, C. K. Tsui, G. Durr-Legoupil-Nicoud +18

In recent years, negative triangularity (NT) has emerged as a potential high-confinement L-mode reactor solution. In this work, detachment is investigated using core density ramps…
