An experimental and computational study of tokamak plasma turbulence

Aylwin Iantchenko

Turbulence driven by small-scale instabilities results in strong heat and particle transport, which significantly shortens the confinement time and prevents the formation of a self-sustained plasma reaction in magnetic confinement devices. Control and poss ...

Plasma-molecular interactions generate molecular ions which react with the plasma and contribute to detachment through molecular activated recombination (MAR), reducing the ion target flux, and molecular activated dissociation (MAD), both of which create e ...

Dynamic pulse scheduling in ASDEX Upgrade: Disruption avoidance and investigation of the H-Mode density limit

Alessandro Pau, Federico Alberto Alfredo Felici, Bernhard Sieglin

Operation of a tokamak device requires the coordinated operation of a multitude of systems. The sequence of operations during a discharge is both too complex and fast for human interaction. A common way of operation is a predefined sequence of operations w ...

ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA2023

Bolometry is an essential diagnostic for calculating the power balances and for the understanding of different physical aspects of tokamak experiments. The reconstruction method based on the Maximum Likelihood (ML) principle, developed initially for JET, h ...

This paper presents the first result using nitrogen-seeded exhaust feedback control of the NII impurity emission front in TCV. The NII emission front position is consistently located below its commonly used CIII counterpart, indicating the NII emission fro ...

This paper summarizes the physical principles behind the novel three-ion scenarios using radio frequency waves in the ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF). We discuss how to transform mode conversion electron heating into a new flexible ICRF technique ...

A study of the influence of plasma-molecule interactions on particle balance during detachment

Basil Duval, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Artur Perek, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh, Mirko Wensing

In this work we provide experimental insights into the impact of plasma-molecule interactions on the target ion flux decrease during divertor detachment achieved through a core density ramp in the TCV tokamak. Our improved analysis of the hydrogen Balmer s ...

This paper presents a dedicated study of plasma-antenna (PA) coupling with the Alfven Eigenmode Active Diagnostic (AEAD) in JET. Stable AEs and their resonant frequencies f, damping rates gamma < 0, and toroidal mode numbers n are measured for various PA s ...

Measurement of the 2D emission profiles of hydrogen and impurity ions in the TCV divertor

Basil Duval, Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Artur Perek, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh, Mirko Wensing

Plasma emission of hydrogen and impurities is measured with use of filtered camera imaging in TCV divertor. The measurement technique is discussed in detail including: selection choice of filters, the absolute calibration procedure and the tomographic inve ...

Observation of Alfvén Eigenmodes driven by off-axis neutral beam injection in the TCV tokamak

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Duccio Testa, Alexander Karpushov, Marcelo Baquero Ruiz, Matteo Vallar, Claudio Marini, Filippo Bagnato, Lorenzo Stipani

Fast-particle driven Alfv´en Eigenmodes have been observed in low-collisionality discharges with off-axis neutral beam injection (NBI), electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) and a reduced toroidal magnetic field. During NBI and ECRH, toroidicity indu ...
