Plasma-molecular interactions generate molecular ions which react with the plasma and
contribute to detachment through molecular activated recombination (MAR), reducing the …

Numerical simulations explore a possible tightly baffled, long-legged divertor (TBLLD)
concept in a future upgrade of the tokamak à configuration variable (TCV). The SOLPS-ITER …

A baffled snowflake minus low-field side (SF-LFS) is geometrically-optimised in tokamak à
configuration variable, increasing divertor neutral pressure, to evaluate the roles of divertor …

The integration of good core and edge/pedestal confinement with strong dissipation of heat
and particles in the divertors is a significant challenge for the development of fusion energy …

Divertor detachment operation compatible with the core plasma is an effective method to
alleviate the steady-state heat flux approaching the divertor target; this scheme will be …

A divertor detachment with sustainable high-performance plasmas has been achieved
through divertor nitrogen seeding in the HL-2A tokamak. The closed divertor structure …

TCV's operating regime with an X-point radiator (XPR) has been broadened by changing the
magnetic geometry. XPRs have properties that could make them an attractive power exhaust …

Plasma edge simulations with the SOLPS-ITER code are performed to study the influence of
divertor baffles on nitrogen-seeded detachment in TCV single-null, L-mode discharges …

Plasma-molecular interactions generate molecular ions which react with the plasma and
contribute to detachment through molecular activated recombination (MAR), reducing the …

Introduction In future reactor-grade tokamaks, detached divertor operation is essential to
exhaust the extreme power arriving at the vessel wall. Ongoing research explores …
