Diverted negative triangularity plasmas on DIII-D: the benefit of high confinement without the liability of an edge pedestal

Stefano Coda, Alessandro Marinoni, Francesco Sciortino

Diverted discharges at negative triangularity on the DIII-D tokamak sustain normalized confinement and pressure levels typical of standard H-mode scenarios (H (98y2) similar or equal to 1, beta (N) similar or equal to 3) without developing an edge pressure ...
