TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the divertor and scrape-off layer of Alcator C-Mod for a wide range of plasma conditions, including low recycling, high-recycling, and detached regimes, and reversed divertor flows.

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed measurement and transport analysis of divertor conditions in Alcator C-mod is presented for a range of line-averaged densities, 0.7
Journal ArticleDOI
Dissipative divertor operation in the Alcator C-Mod tokamak
Bruce Lipschultz,J.A. Goetz,Brian LaBombard,G.M. McCracken,J.L. Terry,M. Graf,Robert Granetz,D. Jablonski,C. Kurz,A. Niemczewski,J.A. Snipes +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrated that the fraction of SOL power lost by radiation is P R /P SOL 0.8 with single null plasmas, n e < 2 × 10 20 m −3 and I p < 1 MA.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The divertor of the Alcator C−Mod tokamak [Phys. as discussed by the authors ] routinely radiates a large fraction of the power entering the scrape-off layer, and large volumetric radiative emissivities have been measured using bolometer arrays.
Journal ArticleDOI
Density measurements in the edge, divertor and X‐point regions of Alcator C‐Mod from Balmer series emission
B. Welch,H. R. Griem,J.L. Terry,C. Kurz,Brian LaBombard,Bruce Lipschultz,E.S. Marmar,G.M. McCracken +7 more
TL;DR: The electron density in the edge, divertor and X-point regions of Alcator C-Mod was measured using the Stark broadening of high n (n=8 through 11) transitions of the Balmer series of deuterium as mentioned in this paper.
