Disruption prediction and avoidance is critical for ITER and reactor-scale tokamaks to maintain steady plasma operation and to avoid damage to device components. The present status and results from the disruption event characterization and forecasting (DECAF) research effort are shown. The DECAF paradigm is primarily physics-based and provides q…

The theory of variances of equilibrium reconstruction is presented. It complements existing practices with information regarding what kind of plasma characteristics can be reconstructed, how accurately, and what remains beyond the abilities of diagnostic systems. The -curves, introduced by the present theory, give a quantitative assessment of quali…

This paper presents a feasibility study for a motional Stark effect ( MSE ) [ F. M. Levinton et al. , Phys. Rev. Lett. 63 , 2060 ( 1989 )] diagnostic on the TCV tokamak. A numerical simulation code has been used to identify the optimal port arrangement and geometrical layout. It predicts the expected measurement accuracy for a range of typical plas…
