Book Description
The characterization of impurity sources in the tokamak edge is challenging because of the highly localized nature of impurity generation. Detailed, spatially resolved, diagnostic information is needed, and three-dimensional (3-D) modeling is required for interpretation. There is also a need for a more extensive atomic and molecular data base for the conditions encountered in this region. The availability of new measurements of photon efficiencies for some relevant hydrocarbon molecules for plasma conditions typical for the tokamak edge and the development of a 3-D Monte Carlo impurities code have enabled the successful modeling of spatially resolved measurements in the vicinity of the pump limiter neutralizer plate and near the inner wall of Tore Supra.

Book Description
The transport of molecules at the plasma edge in tokamaks is discussed in order to compare how light impurities enter the plasma if they are released either in atomic or molecular forms. Differences in their transport arise because of the dissimilarities between the atomic and molecular reactions with the bulk of the plasma. It is found that recycling to the walls is more efficient for the light impurities released in molecular form, but, also, that a substantial fraction of those atoms which originate from molecules may penetrate further into the plasma.

Impurity Transport Studies in Tokamak Edge Plasmas Using Visibe Imaging

Languages : en
Pages : 6
Book Description
Understanding impurity transport in the scrape-off layer (SOL) of tokamak plasmas is a necessary piece of developing the physics basis for designing next-generation reactors. A system for inferring impurity transport parallel and perpendicular to local magnetic field lines has been developed on Alcator C-Mod using gas-injection "plumes". In this system, impurity gas is injected at a fixed position in the SOL via a reciprocating fast-scanning probe, and the resulting emission is imaged. In this paper visible light emission patterns from C+1 and C+2 ions are presented.
