Boundary layer measurements during density clamp in DITE

  • 1. Euratom/UKAEA Fusion Association, Abingdon (UK). Culham Lab.

Description

A density clamp is observed in DITE tokamak with neutral beam injection heating. Measurements in the scrape-off plasma are described which show an increase in the particle flux to the limiters during injection. This is sufficient to account for the density clamp without requiring a change in the recycling coefficient. (author)
