    • Intermittent electron density and temperature fluctuations and associated fluxes in the Alcator C-Mod scrape-off layer

      The Alcator C-Mod mirror Langmuir probe system has been used to sample data time series of fluctuating plasma parameters in the outboard mid-plane far scrape-off layer. We present a statistical analysis of one second long time series of electron density, temperature, radial electric drift velocity and the corresponding particle and electron heat fluxes. These are sampled during stationary plasma ...

      The scale length of the radial density profile in scrape-off layer plasmas has been shown to depend on the line-averaged plasma density. While first reported on AlcatorC-Mod, recent work verifies this phenomena in JET and ASDEX Upgrade. In low density plasmas with a sheath-limited SOL, the density profiles present a two-scale structure which allows the separation of the SOL into two distinct regions. ...
    • Statistical properties of the plasma fluctuations and turbulent cross-field fluxes in the outboard mid-plane scrape-off layer of Alcator C-Mod 

      Kube, Ralph; Garcia, Odd Erik; Theodorsen, Audun; Kuang, Adam; LaBombard, Brian; Terry, Jim L.; Brunner, Dan (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-12-29)
      The Alcator C-Mod mirror Langmuir probe diagnostic is used to characterize plasma fluctuations in the outboard mid-plane scrape-off layer (SOL). Ohmically heated L-mode plasmas with Greenwald fractions from 0.1 to 0.45 are analyzed. In plasmas with a low line-averaged core density, the radial profiles of the average electron density and temperature feature a two-scale structure with a strong gradient ...
