Almost since the first density profile measurements were made in the scrape-off layer (SOL) of the early tokamaks, it has been recognized that the rate of particle transport perpendicular to magnetic surfaces exceeds that expected on the basis of classical ...
Gyrokinetic calculations with the GS2 code of impurity transport in ASDEX Upgrade H-mode plasmas are presented. A method to separate the diagonal and off-diagonal terms in the quasi-linear flux computed by the gyrokinetic code for a trace impurity is intro ...
The radial electric field in known to be one of the drivers of parallel ion flow in the SOL. It contributes to the ion Pfirsch-Schluter flow and also determines the 'return parallel flow' that can arise to compensate poloidal E x B drift. It was establishe ...
Asymmetries are a ubiquitous feature of the scrape-off layer (SOL) and divertor plasmas in any tokamak and are thought to be driven primarily by a variety of drift flows, the directions of which reverse with reversal of the main toroidal field. The underst ...
The first toroidal rotation measurements in TCV ohmic L-mode plasmas with no external momentum injection are presented. The toroidal velocity profile of the fully stripped carbon species is measured by active Charge eXchange Recombination Spectroscopy with ...
The development of controlled thermonuclear fusion, a quasi-unlimited energy source suitable for large scale electricity production, is one of the main goals of plasma physics research. Among the directions explored to date, the use of toroidal devices cal ...
Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities and plasma rotation have various impacts on particle and thermal transport in toroidal plasmas. MHD instabilities degrade the confinement, limit the maximum achievable plasma pressure, and can lead to plasma disrupti ...
The transport of particles in magnetically confined plasmas is of great importance for the development of fusion energy. It will determine techniques for fuelling, for controlling impurity concentrations and for the removal of the alpha particles produced ...
The ultimate goal of magnetic confinement fusion research is to develop an electricity producing power plant based on thermonuclear fusion reactions. Among the most promising magnetic confinement devices, as leading concepts for future power plants, are to ...
During a recent reversed toroidal field (B-T) campaign at the Joint European Torus (JET), experiments were performed to investigate the effect on sawteeth of neutral beam injection (NBI)-driven toroidal plasma rotation counter to the direction of the toroi ...
