    The ECRH system of ASDEX Upgrade has been upgraded over the last 15 years from a 2 MW, 2 s, 140 GHz system to an 8 MW, 10 s, dual frequency system (105/140 GHz). The power exceeds the L/H power threshold at least by a factor of two even for high densities and roughly equals the installed ICRF power. The power of both...

    Energetic particles in the MeV range are ubiquitous in fusion devices [1]. On one hand, they can be suprathermal ions born from the fusion reactions or accelerated by ion cyclotron resonance heating. On the other hand, they can be runaway electrons (REs) that are spontaneously generated, for example, during a...

However, MHD is an unfinished framework for magnetically confined plasmas, because the MHD pressure equation assumes sufficiently high collision frequency which is not valid for the high-temperature plasmas.

    Lausanne, Switzerland An extensive study of quasi-axisymmetric equilibria has been conducted, from which a highly promising magnetic field design has been found by exploiting ROSE (Rose Optimizes Stellarator Equilibria) [1] - an optimization code for 3D magnetic plasma equilibria. The results of this design study and...

    WEST is a full tungsten (W) superconducting tokamak with a major radius of 2.5 m, an aspect ratio of 5 and a nominal magnetic field of 3.7T. WEST programme aims at power exhaust studies on the ITER-like actively cooled tungsten divertor and at bulk plasma performance in discharges reaching 1000s.
    So far up to 5.3 MW of...

    Ion Cyclotron Resonance Frequency (ICRF) heating is one of the auxiliary heating methods which will be used in ITER. A detailed assessment of ICRF schemes available in the non-active phase of ITER operation was recently carried out [1]. As a result, the ICRF scenarios considered for ITER also include the so-called...

    For an efficient and robust use of Electron Cyclotron (EC) to assist the start-up phase of the plasma in large tokamaks with superconductive coils, it is necessary to develop appropriate models capable of predicting from present experiments to future scenarios (as for ITER, JT60SA and DEMO). Experience gained on TCV and...

    Series of isotope control experiments in H/D mixtures on JET [1] have shown that NBI fuelling species has only a weak effect on the core isotope composition, which remains determined by the edge H/D ratio and therefore by the injected gas. The analysis of the core particle transport of the ion components revealed a fast...
