The lithium vapor box divertor aims to detach the divertor plasma via evaporating and condensing lithium surfaces. By evaporating lithium near or at the divertor plate and condensing it closer to the main chamber, a lithium vapor density…
Simulating gas flow within the divertor, which is a crucial component in nuclear fusion reactors, is essential for assessing and enhancing its design and performance. Traditional methods, such as the direct simulation Monte Carlo and the…
In-situ, two-dimensional (2D) Langmuir probe measurements across a large part of the TCV divertor are reported in L-mode discharges with and without divertor baffles. This provides detailed insights into time averaged profiles, particle…
The edge plasma turbulence and transport dynamics, as well as the divertor power loads during the thermal quench phase of tokamak disruptions are numerically investigated with BOUT++'s flux-driven, six-field electromagnetic turbulence…
Self-consistent full-size turbulent-transport simulations of the divertor and SOL of existing tokamaks have recently become feasible. This enables the direct comparison of turbulence simulations against experimental measurements. In this…
The most promising concepts for power and particle control in tokamaks and other fusion experiments rely upon atomic processes to transfer the power and momentum from the edge plasma to the plasma chamber walls. This places a new emphasis…
Reduction of the peak heat loads on the plasma facing components is essential for the success of the next generation of high fusion power tokamaks such as the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) 1 . Many present concepts…
A challenging and fundamental research problem is the better understanding and control of the turbulent transport of heat in present-day tokamak fusion experiments. Recent developments in numerical methods along with enormous gains in…
We describe and characterize a device for alkali vapor pressure modulation on the 100ms timescale in a single-cell cold atom experiment. Its mechanism is based on optimized heat conduction between a current-modulated alkali dispenser and a…
A lithium droplet transport and evaporation model has been developed within the Direct Simulation Monte Carlo code OpenEdge. This model integrates gravity, collisional ion drag, orbital-motion-limited charging, energy-balance evaporation,…
A machine learning approach has been implemented to measure the electron temperature directly from the emission spectra of a tokamak plasma. This approach utilized a neural network (NN) trained on a dataset of 1865 time slices from…
The linear plasma machine Magnum-PSI can replicate similar conditions to those found in a tokamak at the end of the divertor leg. A dedicated capacitor bank, in parallel to the plasma source, can release a sudden burst of energy, leading to…
Multi-machine empirical scaling predicts an extremely narrow heat exhaust layer in future high magnetic field tokamaks, producing high power densities that require mitigation. In the experiments presented, the width of this exhaust layer is…
Divertor plasma detachment is likely needed for the function of magnetically confined nuclear fusion. It greatly reduces the particle and heat flux incident on a target, and thus reduces the sputtering and heat loading on the target. It is…
The work is devoted to the investigation of properties of water vapor. The main attention is focused on the physical nature of its effective polarizability and heat capacity at constant volume. We show that the specific temperature…
The thermo-mechanical effect in superfluid helium is used to create an initial chemical potential difference, $\Delta \mu_0$, across a solid $^4$He sample. This $\Delta \mu_0$ causes a flow of helium atoms from one reservoir filled with…
The paper is devoted to the Thomson scattering (TS) diagnostics recently developed for the Globus-M2 spherical tokamak and prototyping the ITER divertor TS diagnostics. The distinctive features of the system are the use of spectrometers,…
We demonstrate experimentally the generation of one-dimensional cold gases of $^{87}$Rb atoms by diffuse laser cooling (DLC). A horizontal slender vacuum glass tube with length of 105~cm and diameter of 2~cm is used in our experiment. The…
Strong divertor baffling is a feature expected to have a number of advantages for core-edge integration in tokamaks, yet one which requires much more detailed and extensive study. In this work, the impacts of baffling on a hydrogenic plasma…
We present 50 individual measurements of the gas temperature and turbulent velocity in the local interstellar medium (LISM) within 100 pc. By comparing the absorption line widths of many ions with different atomic masses, we can…
