Effect of resonant magnetic perturbations on low collisionality discharges in MAST and a comparison with ASDEX Upgrade
A. Kirk, W. Suttrop, Yueqiang Liu +19
Sustained ELM mitigation has been achieved on MAST and AUG using RMPs with a range of toroidal mode numbers over a wide region of low to medium collisionality discharges. The ELM e…
Impact of Resonant Magnetic Perturbations on the L-H Transition on MAST
R. Scannell, A. Kirk, M. Carr +7
The impact of resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) on the power required to access H-mode is examined experimentally on MAST. Applying RMP in n=2,3,4 and 6 configurations causes…
ELM mitigation via rotating resonant magnetic perturbations on MAST
A. J. Thornton, A. Kirk, P. Cahyna +7
The application of resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) produces splitting of the divertor strike point due to the interaction of the RMP field and the plasma field. The applicat…
Pellet fuelling with edge-localised modes controlled by external magnetic perturbations in MAST
M Valovic, L Garzotti, C Gurl +6
The fuelling of plasmas by shallow frozen pellets with simultaneous mitigation of edge localised modes (ELM) by external magnetic perturbation is demonstrated on the MAST tokamak.…
Dependence of intrinsic rotation reversals on collisionality in MAST
J. C. Hillesheim, F. I. Parra, M. Barnes +6
Tokamak plasmas rotate even without external injection of momentum. A Doppler backscattering system installed at MAST has allowed this intrinsic rotation to be studied in Ohmic L-m…
Scaling of the scrape-off layer width during inter-ELM H modes on MAST as measured by infrared thermography
A. J. Thornton, A. Kirk, MAST Team
The power load to the divertor surfaces is a key concern for future devices such as ITER, due to the thermal limits on the material surface. One factor that characterizes the heat…
