Tritium removal from JET-ILW after T and D-T experimental campaigns

After the second Deuterium-Tritium Campaign (DTE2) in the JET tokamak with the ITER-Like Wall (ILW) and full tritium campaigns that preceded and followed after the DTE2, a sequence of fuel recovery methods was applied to promote tritium removal from wall c ...

The JET hybrid scenario in Deuterium, Tritium and Deuterium-Tritium

Mikhail Maslov, Javier García Hernández, Matteo Fontana, Haomin Sun

The JET hybrid scenario has been developed from low plasma current carbon wall discharges to the record-breaking Deuterium-Tritium plasmas obtained in 2021 with the ITER-like Be/W wall. The development started in pure Deuterium with refinement of the plasm ...

Evaluation of neutron dose rates at the TCV tokamak facility

Patrick Blanchard, Henri Weisen, Matteo Vallar

A detailed MCNP neutronics model of the building housing the TCV tokamak has been developed. Predicted dose rates have been compared to neutron dose measurements at 12 locations in the building obtained during neutral beam injection into TCV plasmas. This ...

EMC and earthing concept of the ITER EC-system

Damien Fasel, Ugo Siravo, Francisco Sanchez, Jérémie Dubray

Gyrotrons and High Voltage Power Supplies (HVPS) used on electron cyclotron (EC) systems are the source of large electromagnetic interference (EMI). Arcing events inside gyrotrons is the most frequently cited issue, but fast shutdown of a HVPS can produce ...

Regressive Tomography and Direct Regressive Reconstruction: A Research Note

Henri Weisen

Two related methods for inverting line-integrated measurements are presented in this research paper in the context of the recent deuterium-tritium experiments in the JET tokamak. Unlike traditional methods of tomography, these methods rely on making use of ...

Excitation of toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes with counter-current NBI in the TCV tokamak

Alexander Karpushov, Laurie Porte, Matteo Vallar, Samuele Mazzi

In TCV, unstable modes excited by resonant interaction between the shear Alfvèn waves in con- tinuum gaps and energetic particles have been observed in scenarios with Neutral Beam Injection (NBI). TCV is a middle-size device (R 0 /a = 0.88/0.25) equipped w ...

Study of correlations between LOC/SOC transition, intrinsic toroidal rotation reversal and TEM/ITG bifurcation with different working gases in TCV

Basil Duval, Aylwin Iantchenko, Filippo Bagnato, Oleg Krutkin

The effects of different working gases on the transition from linear ohmic confinement (LOC) regime to saturated ohmic confinement (SOC) regime and its relation to the intrinsic toroidal rotation reversal phenomenon were explored in the TCV tokamak. The en ...

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 ...

Investigating the impact of the molecular charge-exchange rate on detached SOLPS-ITER simulations

Basil Duval, Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh

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 ...

Study of fast-ion-driven toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes impacting on the global confinement in TCV L-mode plasmas

Stephan Brunner, Laurent Villard, Stefano Coda, Javier García Hernández, Aylwin Iantchenko, Justin Richard Ball, Matteo Vallar, Umesh Kumar, Oleg Krutkin, Luke Simons, Jesús Poley Sanjuán, Samuele Mazzi, Baruch Rofman

Following recent observations of unstable Toroidal Alfven Eigenmodes (TAEs) in a counter-current Neutral Beam Injection (NBI) scenario developed in TCV, an in-depth analysis of the impact of such modes on the global confinement and performance is carried o ...

A machine-learning-based tool for last closed-flux surface reconstruction on tokamaks

Olivier Sauter, Alessandro Pau, Chenguang Wan, Xiaojuan Liu

Tokamaks allow to confine fusion plasma with magnetic fields. The prediction/reconstruction of the last closed-flux surface (LCFS) is one of the primary challenges in the control of the magnetic configuration. The evolution in time of the LCFS is determine ...

Validation of D-T fusion power prediction capability against 2021 JET D-T experiments

Mikhail Maslov, Javier García Hernández, Michele Marin

JET experiments using the fuel mixture envisaged for fusion power plants, deuterium and tritium (D-T), provide a unique opportunity to validate existing D-T fusion power prediction capabilities in support of future device design and operation preparation. ...
