Overview of recent physics results from MAST
A Kirk, J Adamek, RJ Akers +160
New results from MAST are presented that focus on validating models in order to extrapolate to future devices. Measurements during start-up experiments have shown how the bulk ion…
Scrape-off layer ion temperature measurements at the divertor target during type III and type I ELMs in MAST measured by RFEA
S. Elmore, S. Y. Allan, G. Fishpool +4
In future nuclear fusion reactors high heat load events, such as edge-localised modes (ELMs), can potentially damage divertor materials and release impurities into the main plasma,…
Numerical investigation of isolated filament motion in a realistic tokamak geometry
N. R. Walkden, B. D. Dudson, L. Easy +2
This paper presents a numerical investigation of isolated filament dynamics in a simulation geometry representative of the scrape-off layer (SOL) of the Mega Amp Spherical Tokamak…
The Influence of Filaments in the Private Flux Region on Divertor Particle and Power Deposition
J. R. Harrison, G. M. Fishpool, A. J. Thornton +2
The transport of particles via intermittent filamentary structures in the private flux region of plasmas in the MAST tokamak has been investigated using a fast framing camera recor…
