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…

Broadening of the Divertor Heat Flux Profile in High Confinement Tokamak Fusion Plasmas with Edge Pedestals Limited by Turbulence in DIII-D
D. R. Ernst, A. Bortolon, C. S. Chang +16
Multi-machine empirical scaling predicts an extremely narrow heat exhaust layer in future high magnetic field tokamaks, producing high power densities that require mitigation. In t…
