A Computational Study of A Lithium Deuteride Fueled Electrothermal Plasma Mass Accelerator
… studies show that it may be possible to disrupt edge localized mode (ELM) formation by injecting pellets or gas into the fusion plasma. The system studied is capable of doing either at a variety of plasma and pellet velocities, volumes, and repetition rates that can be controlled through the …

Experimental Studies of Neutral Particle Effects on Edge Transport Barriers in Tokamaks Using the Lyman-alpha Measurement Apparatus
… capabilities remain limited for the tokamak edge density profile due to small spatial scales, complex plasma transport, and non-negligible effects of neutral particles. To better quantify the hydrogenic neutral particle source, a one-dimensional, absolutely calibrated pinhole camera system …

Characterization of ion properties in a linear pulsed plasma-material interaction test stand
In the edge and divertor regions of the magnetically confined plasma, tokamaks experience off-normal events in which high intensities of heat flux incident on wall component surfaces result in intolerable levels of damage. Proposed solid divertors will not be able to withstand these fluxes, …

Pedestal structure and stability in high-performance plasmas on Alcator C-Mod
… temperature, and pressure near the plasma edge. The pedestal height is strongly correlated with overall fusion performance, as a substantial pedestal supports the elevated core pressure necessary for the desired fusion reaction rate and power density. However, stationary operation requires …
