Book Description
Calculations have been performed which demonstrate the possibility of operating poloidal divertors at high densities and low temperatures. This operating regime is caused primarily by ionization of recycling neutral gas near the divertor neutralizer plate which amplifies the input particle flux thereby raising the plasma density and lowering the plasma temperature. Low temperature, high density operation of poloidal divertors would ease the design requirements for future large tokamaks such as INTOR or FED by reducing the erosion rate in the divertor and reducing the neutral density and the associated charge exchange erosion near the main plasma. This regime may have already been observed on several divertor and limiter experiments.

Book Description
Some of the earliest civilizations regarded the universe as organized around four principles, the four "elements" earth. water, air, and fire. Fire, which was the source of light and as such possessed an immaterial quality related to the spiritual world. was clearly the most impressive of these elements, although its quanti tative importance could not have been properly discerned. M- ern science has changed the names, but macroscopic matter is still divided into four states. The solid, liquid, and gaseous states are ordinary states, but the fourth state of matter, the plasma state, has retained a somewhat extraordinary character. It is now recognized that most of the matter of the universe is in the ionized state. but on the earth. the plasma state is still the exception. Hence the importance and also the difficulty of investigations dealing with ionized matter, which have been greatly furthered by the development of thermonuclear fusion research. The study of matter in the ionized state comprises a large diversity of problems belonging to many different branches of phys ics. A number of them relate to the microscopic properties of plasmas and concern the structure and the collisional behavior of atomic constituents. Although they are clearly of basic importance, their relevance to thermonuclear research was at first overlooked, at a time when most of the effort was concentrated on designing fusion devices and understanding macroscopic phenomena, mostly of an electromagnetic nature. At present.
