In a snowflake (SF) divertor, two magnetic field nulls are placed close to each other, creating four strike points (SPs) compared to two in a standard X-point divertor. In preparation for MAST-U experiments, magnetic configurations with the standard and SF divertors with various locations and separation distances of the nulls were modeled using …

The application of dc magnetic field to a 2G high temperature superconducting (HTS) tape can reduce the critical current Ic of the tape, without driving the material normal. This property can be used in the development of HTS switching elements through so-called Jc(B) switching. The design of a dc magnetic field switch is reported, in both singl…

During bursty MHD events, transient ion cyclotron emission (ICE) is observed from deuterium plasmas in the Large Helical Device (LHD) heliotron-stellarator. Unusually, the frequencies of the successive ICE spectral peaks are not close to integer multiples of the local cyclotron frequency of an energetic ion population in the likely emitting regi…

Using atomistic simulations based on the creation-relaxation algorithm, we explore the evolution of microstructure in irradiated zirconium over a broad range of radiation exposure. In agreement with experimental observations, we find that at relatively low temperatures, microstructure evolves towards an asymptotic dynamic steady state forming at…

Ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) is one of the three additional heating schemes to be deployed on ITER. Its two antenna arrays, installed on the outboard midplane, will deliver 20 MW of RF power in the 40-55 MHz frequency range. The plasma-facing component of …

The effect of ion irradiation on evolution of microstructure and hardening of beryllium with different impurity levels was investigated using TEM and nanoindentation. High purity S-65 grade and less-pure S-200-F grade were implanted by helium ions at temperatures of 50°C and 200°C. 11 different energies were used, so as to create a quasi-homog…

A survey of the correlation between temperature and density gradient lengths ( and ) has been performed for the near SOL regions in the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak. In common with previous studies, the near SOL temperature and density gradient length ratio, , is found to be close to unity across a wide range of plasmas. However, it is found that it is po…

With MAST-U’s first plasma achieved in November 2020 and one of the key aims of the first experimental programme being to study exhaust physics, there is strong motivation to develop a new probe designed specifically for studying edge turbulence effects in the exhaust region of MAST-U. To create a new versatile probe, the design will be valida…

In 2019 JET carried out a very successful Deuterium-Deuterium campaign, referred to as C38, producing a total of 3.751019 DD neutrons. During this campaign, a series of experiments were implemented to record the neutron fluence at positions close and far from the source and along shielding penetrations. Measurements were performed usi…
