Predictions of the impact of charge-exchange (CX) reactions on beam ions in the MAST Upgrade spherical tokamak have been compared to measurements carried out with a fission chamber (neutron fluxes) and a Fast Ion Deuterium-Alpha (FIDA) diagnostic. A simple model was developed to reconstruct the outer-midplane neutral density based on Thomson sca…

MAST-U has recently started operating with a Super-X divertor, designed to increase total flux expansion and neutral trapping, both predicted through simple analytic models and SOLPS calculations to reduce the plasma and impurity density detachment thresholds. In this study, utilising the SOLPS-ITER code, we are quantifying the possible gain allowe…
