The Yacora solver has been used to generate two novel molecular rate databases for use in SOLPS-ITER. The reduced Yacora database utilises updated cross-sectional data, whilst the full Yacora database includes the same updated cross-sectional data in addition to the inclusion of vibrational reactions such as off-diagonal vibrational electron-impact…
Detachment, an important mechanism for reducing target heat deposition, is achieved through reductions in power, particle and momentum; which are induced through plasma-atom and plasma-molecule interactions. Experimental research in how those reactions precisely contribute to detachment is limited. Both plasma-atom as well as plasma-molecule intera…
