      Scrape-off layer (SOL) widths <i>λ<sub>q</sub></i> are presented from the KSTAR tokamak using fast reciprocating Langmuir probe assembly (FRLPA) measurements at the outboard mid-plane (OMP) and the infra-Red (IR) thermography at inboard limiter tiles in moderately elongated (<i>κ</i> = 1.45 – 1.55) L-mode inner wall-limited (IWL) plasmas under experimental conditions such as B<sub>T</sub> = 2.0 T, ...
    • Scrape-off layer turbulence in TCV: Evidence in support of stochastic modelling. 

      Theodorsen, Audun; Garcia, Odd Erik; Horacek, Jan; Kube, Ralph; Pitts, RA (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-01-28)
      Intermittent fluctuations in the TCV scrape-off layer have been investigated by analysing long Langmuir probe data time series under stationary conditions, allowing calculation of fluctuation statistics with high accuracy. The ion saturation current signal is dominated by the frequent occurrence of large-amplitude bursts attributed to filament structures moving through the scrape-off layer. The ...
    • SOL width and intermittent fluctuations in KSTAR 

      Garcia, Odd Erik; Kube, Ralph Arthur; Theodorsen, Audun; Bak, J. G.; Hong, SH; Kim, H.S.; KSTAR, project team; Pitts, RA (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-12-27)
      Radial profiles of the ion saturation current and its fluctuation statistics are presented from probe measurements in L-mode, neutral beam heated plasmas at the outboard mid-plane region of KSTAR. The results are consistent with the familiar two-layer structure, seen elsewhere in tokamak L-mode discharges, with a steep near-SOL profile and a broad far-SOL profile. The profile scale length in the ...
