Journal ArticleDOI

High-fluence and high-flux performance characteristics of the superconducting Magnum-PSI linear plasma facility

TL;DR: The Magnum-PSI facility is unique in its ability to produce and even exceed the heat and particle fluxes expected in the divertor of a fusion reactor, combined with good access to the plasma-material interaction region for diagnostics and relatively easy sample manipulation as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Real-time feedback control of the impurity emission front in tokamak divertor plasmas.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report a systematic approach to reduce fluxes onto the divertor through feedback control of impurity emission front locations and its experimental demonstration, which comprises a combination of real-time plasma diagnostic utilization, dynamic characterization of the plasma in proximity to divertor, and efficient, reliable offline feedback controller design.
Journal ArticleDOI

Overview of the TCV tokamak experimental programme

H. Reimerdes, +238 more
- 01 Mar 2022 - 
TL;DR: The 2019-20 TCV campaign as mentioned in this paper was the most successful campaign to date, with the installation of removable divertor gas baffles, diagnostic capabilities with an extensive set of upgrades and its heating systems with new dual frequency gyrotrons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimation of the thermal diffusion coefficient in fusion plasmas taking frequency measurement uncertainties into account

TL;DR: In this article, the estimation of the thermal diffusivity from perturbative experiments in fusion plasmas is discussed, and confidence bounds are constructed to illustrate the uncertainty in the estimation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of a real-time algorithm for detection of the divertor detachment radiation front using multi-spectral imaging

TL;DR: In this paper, the optical boundary and radiation front for detached divertor plasmas are extracted using a non-tomographic approach, and the detected divertor leg and the radiation front can be mapped to the poloidal plane.
