A comprehensive L-H power threshold study of MAST data is presented, with a detailed categorisation of transition and intermediate behaviour and a comparison of the results to scaling laws. Preliminary studies into the ion and electron heat flux for transitions at different densities are introduced. The first results of an L-H transition study o…
Spherical tokamaks are known to differ from conventional tokamaks in a number of physics areas, but our understanding is limited by a comparative lack of experimental data. A comprehensive study of the density dependence of the H-mode power threshold PLH on the Mega-Amp Spherical Tokamak (MAST) is presented, mapping out the low-density a…
