  • Recent progress on JET towards the ITER reference mode of operation at high density

    • Recent progress towards obtaining high density and high confinement in JET as required for the ITER reference scenario at Q = 10 is summarized. Plasmas with simultaneous confinement H-98(y.2) = 1 and densities up to n/n(Gw) similar to 1 are now routinely obtained. This has been possible (i) by using plasmas at high (delta similar to 0.5) and medium (delta similar to 0.3-0.4) triangularity with sufficient heating power to maintain Type I ELMs, (ii) with impurity seeded plasmas at high (delta similar to 0.5) and low (delta less than or equal to 0.2) triangularity, (iii) with an optimized pellet injection sequence, maintaining the energy confinement and raising the density, and (iv) by carefully tuning the gas puff rate leading to plasmas with peaked density profiles and good confinement at long time scales. These high performance discharges exhibit Type I ELMs, with a new and more favourable behaviour observed at high densities, requiring further studies. Techniques for a possible mitigation of these ELMs are discussed, and first promising results are obtained with impurity seeding in discharges at high triangularity. Scaling studies using the new data of this year show a strong dependence of confinement on upper triangularity, density and proximity to the Greenwald limit. Observed MHD instabilities and methods to avoid these in high density and high confinement plasmas are discussed.

  • The formation and evolution of extreme shear reversal in JET and its influence on local thermal transport
  • 2002
  • Ingår i: Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion. - : IOP Publishing. - 0741-3335 .- 1361-6587. ; 44:7, s. 1105-1125

    • In JET discharges where lower hybrid heating and current drive (LHCD) is applied early during the current ramp, a region of the plasma with zero current density is formed near the axis. At the boundary of this region the current density is large and B-theta increases rapidly over a small distance. In the central region the safety factor, q, is effectively infinite, but this falls steeply in the boundary region. Outside the boundary region q reaches a minimum, where the magnetic shears equivalent to r/q (dq/dr) becomes zero. The formation of this region of zero current is dependent on both the heating and the current drive effects of the LHCD. When LHCD is switched off the current profile begins to relax towards the resistive peaked current distribution of fully inductive tokamak operation. If LHCD is not used in the current rise then these current profiles are not established. Although the physical mechanism exists to drive the central plasma current below zero, in most cases it appears to be prevented from going negative. At least one MHD mechanism has been identified which could be responsible for this. The presence of the zero central current is closely linked to the periodic relaxation events seen in these discharges. In these discharges, internal transport barriers have been observed with additional heating powers substantially below the values required to obtain barriers in monotonic q profile cases.

  • On the role of different phasings of the ICRF antennas in optimized shear discharges in JET
  • 2000
  • Ingår i: Nuclear Fusion. - : IOP Publishing. - 0029-5515 .- 1741-4326. ; 40:10, s. 1773-1789

    • In discharges with internal transport barriers produced by combined NBI and ICRF heating using the hydrogen minority scheme in JET, confinement and fusion performance are strongly affected by the direction of propagation of the ICRF waves. When the waves propagate along the plasma current, the formation of an internal transport barrier is prompter and the neutron yield is up to a factor of two higher than that for propagation against the current. An ICRF induced pinch of resonating trapped ions is put forward as a candidate for explaining the observations. Simulation results are presented which show that this effect is strong enough to provide a credible explanation for the experimental results.

  • Pilot experiments for the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor active beam spectroscopy diagnostic

  • Ingår i: Review of Scientific Instruments. - : AIP Publishing. - 0034-6748 .- 1089-7623. ; 75:10, s. 3458-3461
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Supporting pilot experiments and activities which are currently considered or already performed for the development of the International Thermonuclear Experiment Reactor active beam spectroscopy diagnostic are addressed in this article. Four key issues are presented including optimization of spectral instrumentation, feasibility of a motional Stark effect (MSE) evaluation based on line ratios, "first-mirror" test-bed experiments at the tokamak TEXTOR, and finally the role of integrated data analysis for the conceptual layout of the change exchange recombination spectroscopy and MSE diagnostic.

  • Active beam spectroscopy diagnostics for ITER : Present status (invited)
  • 2004
  • Ingår i: Review of Scientific Instruments. - : AIP Publishing. - 0034-6748 .- 1089-7623. ; 75:10, s. 3393-3398
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • An overview is given of the present design of the active beam spectroscopy diagnostics for the ITER. Present spatial resolution and signal-to-noise indicate that, in principle, all proposed measurements are possible covering the entire plasma minor radius. Calculations show that the mirror based periscopes and the impurity coating of the first mirror affect the signal strength and the polarization characteristics of the measured spectra having an impact in the measurement accuracy. On-line calibration techniques and methods to access the first mirror status are addressed.
