A predictive formula for the H-mode electron separatrix density: Bridging regression and physics-based models across C-Mod, AUG and JET tokamaks
D. Silvagni, O. Grover, A. Stagni +27
The electron density at the separatrix () plays a central role in balancing energy confinement, detachment achievement, and ELM suppression in tokamaks, thereby…

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…

Divertor shaping with neutral baffling as a solution to the tokamak power exhaust challenge
K. Verhaegh, J. R. Harrison, D. Moulton +20
Exhausting power from the hot fusion core to the plasma-facing components is one of the biggest challenges in fusion energy. The MAST Upgrade tokamak uniquely integrates strong con…
