Non-dimensional confinement scaling in similar negative triangularity plasmas on the DIII-D and TCV tokamaks
A. Marinoni, C. Chrystal, S. Coda +25
Similarity experiments were performed on the DIII-D and TCV tokamaks to explore the scaling of energy confinement in negative triangularity plasmas using non-dimensional variables.…
Disentangling Core and Edge Mechanisms of the Density Limit in DIII-D Negative Triangularity Plasmas
R. Hong, P. H. Diamond, O. Sauter +14
The density limit is investigated in the DIII-D negative triangularity (NT) plasmas which lack a standard H-mode edge. We find the limit may not be a singular disruptive boundary b…
Operation above the Greenwald density limit in high performance DIII-D negative triangularity discharges
O Sauter, R. Hong, A. Marinoni +9
The density limit in strongly-shaped negative triangularity (NT) discharges is studied experimentally in the DIII-D tokamak. Record-high Greenwald fractions are obtained, usi…
Simultaneous kinetic profile and magnetic equilibrium inference with Bayesian integrated data analysis in preparation for ITER
S. S. Denk, T. B. Amara, T. Odstrcil +7
Accurate plasma state reconstruction will be crucial for the success of ITER and future fusion plants, but the harsh conditions of a burning plasma will make diagnostic operation m…
