Plasma{material interactions in current tokamaks and their implications for next step fusion reactors

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the underlying physical processes and the existing experimental database of plasma-material interactions both in tokamaks and laboratory simulation facilities for conditions of direct relevance to next-step fusion reactors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transport by intermittent convection in the boundary of the DIII-D tokamak

TL;DR: Intermittent plasma objects (IPOs) featuring higher pressure than the surrounding plasma, and responsible for ∼50% of the E×BT radial transport, are observed in the scrape off layer (SOL) and edge of the DIII-D tokamak.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transport by intermittency in the boundary of the DIII-D tokamak

TL;DR: Intermittent plasma objects (IPOs), featuring higher pressure than the surrounding plasma, are responsible for ∼50% of the E×BT radial transport in the scrape off layer (SOL) of the Doublet III D (DIII-D) tokamak as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluctuation-driven transport in the DIII-D boundary

TL;DR: In this article, the cross-field fluctuation-driven transport in edge and scrape-off layer (SOL) plasmas in the DIII-D tokamak using a fast reciprocating Langmuir probe array allowing local measurements of the fluctuationdriven particle and heat fluxes.
