Assessment of Neutron Production in Neutral Beam Injector of TCV Tokamak

Alexander Karpushov

Neutral beam (NB) injector for the TCV tokamak has been designed to produce a deuterium beam with energy 30 keV, equivalent current up to 50 A, and pulse duration 2 s. The injector operation is accompanied by generation of fast neutrons produced in deuteri ...

Multi-slit triode ion optical system with ballistic beam focusing

Alexander Karpushov, Anton Smirnov

Multi-slit triode ion-optical systems with spherical electrodes are of interest for formation of intense focused neutral beams for plasma heating. At present, two versions of focusing multi-slit triode ion optical system are developed. The first ion optica ...

Overview of the FTU results

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Duccio Testa, Holger Reimerdes, Alexander Karpushov, Cristian Galperti, Gabriele Grosso, Doohyun Kim, Dávid Wágner, Lucia Isabel Federspiel

Since the 2012 IAEA-FEC Conference, FTU operations have been largely devoted to runaway electrons generation and control, to the exploitation of the 140 GHz electron cyclotron (EC) system and to liquid metal limiter elements. Experiments on runaway electro ...

Threshold power for the transition into H-mode for H, D, and He plasmas in TCV

Basil Duval, Yves Martin, Benoît Labit, Laurie Porte, Alexander Karpushov, Roland Behn

The threshold power for the transition into H-mode with hydrogen (H), deuterium (D), and helium (He) as majority ion species has been evaluated from a series of dedicated experiments on the tokamak TCV. Identical plasma configurations with a single-null X- ...

Supply equipment to the new NBH system for the TCV tokamak

Alexander Karpushov, Damien Fasel, Ugo Siravo, Jérémie Dubray, Albert Perez

The TCV tokamak is equipped with a high power real time-controllable Electron Cyclotron Heating (ECH) system, made of 9 gyrotrons capable of 500 kW RF power. One of the major scientific challenge, the TCV upgrades aimed to, will be the access to a wider ra ...

Upgrade of the TCV tokamak, first phase: Neutral beam heating system

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Timothy Goodman, Yves Martin, Stefano Alberti, René Chavan, Alexander Karpushov, Damien Fasel, Matthieu Toussaint

Experiments on TCV are designed to complement the work at large integrated tokamak facilities (such as JET) to provide a stepwise approach to extrapolation to ITER and DEMO in areas where medium-size tokamaks can often exploit their experimental capabiliti ...

High density experiments in TCV ohmically heated and L-mode plasmas

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Timothy Goodman, Benoît Labit, Laurie Porte, Alexander Karpushov, Antoine Pochelon, Roland Behn

Recent experiments have been performed on the Tokamak a configuration variable (TCV) to investigate the confinement properties of high density plasmas and the mechanism behind the density limit. In a limiter configuration with plasma elongation kappa = 1.3 ...

Effects of central electron cyclotron power on plasma rotation and on triggerless onset of NTMs in the TCV tokamak

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Duccio Testa, Holger Reimerdes, Alexander Karpushov, Doohyun Kim, Dávid Wágner, Lucia Isabel Federspiel, Jonathan Rossel, Donghyun Kim

Experiments on the TCV tokamak show that high power central electron cyclotron heating (ECH) and current drive (ECCD) produce significant direct modification of the plasma rotation profile, as well as the effect on the equilibrium current density. These ef ...

On the non-stiffness of edge transport in L-mode tokamak plasmas

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Timothy Goodman, Stephan Brunner, Alexander Karpushov, Antoine Pierre Emmanuel Alexis Merle, Yann Camenen, Roland Behn, Doohyun Kim

Transport analyses using first-principle turbulence codes and 11/2-D transport codes usually study radial transport properties between the tokamak plasma magnetic axis and a normalized minor radius around 0.8. In this region, heat transport shows significa ...

Indirect measurement of poloidal rotation using inboard–outboard asymmetry of toroidal rotation and comparison with neoclassical predictions

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Alexander Karpushov, Yanis Andrebe, Yann Camenen, Alessandro Bortolon, Lucia Isabel Federspiel

An alternative experimental spectroscopic measurement of poloidal plasma rotation in toroidally confined plasmas is proven effective in the TCV tokamak. Charge exchange recombination measurements of the toroidal rotation profile over the full mid-plane pla ...
