== Description of the project ==

Con este proyecto queremos mejorar la calidad de las predicciones sobre los plasmas de ITER y DEMO, que son los próximos equipos de
fusión y el foco del programa de confinamiento magnetico europeo.

La propuesta aborda 3 aspectos fundamentales de la operación de ITER asociados a la física del pedestal: la transición L-H, regímenes
de ELMs pequeños, y el "Quiescent H-mode", también llamado mode QH, sin ELMs.

En cuanto a la transición L-H, proponemos continuar el trabajo experimental en el JET, especialmente ahora que hemos empezado a
obtener datos de la transición L-H en mezclas de tritio y deuterio-tritio (las más relevantes para la fusión), en el JET-ILW, con pared de Be y divertor de Wolframio. El trabajo experimental de la transición L-H implica la coordinación del equipo, el diseño del experimento, la preparación, la ejecución, el análisis de los datos y su interpretación.

En términos de la teoría L-H, estamos investigando la naturaleza del modo M, una oscilación magnética n=0, m=1 observada en el inicio
del modo H. En los datos disponibles de los estudios de transición LH en plasmas calentados por radio-frecuencia en JET, la frecuencia del modo M parece escalar con la corriente de plasma dividida por la raíz cuadrada de la densidad de masa de los iones, lo que indica que posiblemente sea una onda poloidal de Alfvén. Nuestro objetivo es desarrollar modelos analíticos y numéricos de ondas Alfvén poloidales superficiales, para explicar las frecuencias observadas empíricamente.

Experimentos recientes en JET-ILW han demonstrado que es posible obtener simultáneamente buen confinamiento en modo H, en
condiciones estacionarias para la densidad y la temperature y con ELMs pequeños. Estos resultados se han obtenido con baja
collisionalidad en el pedestal y utilizando el escenario básico (Baseline) de ITER (con <math>q_{95}=3</math>, <math>H_{98}=1</math> y <math>\beta_N=2</math>). Esto hace de este nuevo regimen de operacion muy diferente de lo que se ha observado previamente en otros dispositivos de fusion (AUG, DIII-D y JT-60U. En este proyecto nos proponemos investigar la física responsable de la aparición de ELMs pequeños, el buen confinamiento y la ausencia de acumulación de impurezas en estas condiciones. Pretendemos contribuir a una mejor comprensión de los mecanismos físicos que afectan a la estabilidad del pedestal, a la turbulencia y al transporte de impurezas en la región del pedestal y del núcleo y, como resultado, contribuir a aumentar la precisión de las extrapolaciones para el ITER y otros dispositivos futuros.

En cuanto a los regímenes sin ELMs, proponemos investigar el modo QH. El modo QH es un estado estacionario del plasma, de interés
potencial para ITER y DEMO. Ha sido una prioridad del programa DIII-D porque permite el acceso a pedestales calientes con alto
confinamiento del núcleo y sin ELMs. No se sabe si puede desarrollarse y mantenerse con un diveror de Wolframio y una pared de Berilio.

Actualmente, Eurofusion está considerando la posibilidad de realizar futuros experimentos en modo QH en las campañas experimentales
del JET 2022-2023. Si se aprueba, este proyecto contribuiría a ellos. En cualquier caso, nos uniríamos a la colaboración entre AUG y DIIID para ejecutar y analizar experimentos de similitud.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

== Description of the project ==

Con este proyecto queremos mejorar la calidad de las predicciones sobre los plasmas de ITER y DEMO, que son los próximos equipos de
fusión y el foco del programa de confinamiento magnetico europeo.

La propuesta aborda 3 aspectos fundamentales de la operación de ITER asociados a la física del pedestal: la transición L-H, regímenes
de ELMs pequeños, y el "Quiescent H-mode", también llamado mode QH, sin ELMs.

En cuanto a la transición L-H, proponemos continuar el trabajo experimental en el JET, especialmente ahora que hemos empezado a
obtener datos de la transición L-H en mezclas de tritio y deuterio-tritio (las más relevantes para la fusión), en el JET-ILW, con pared de Be y divertor de Wolframio. El trabajo experimental de la transición L-H implica la coordinación del equipo, el diseño del experimento, la preparación, la ejecución, el análisis de los datos y su interpretación.

En términos de la teoría L-H, estamos investigando la naturaleza del modo M, una oscilación magnética n=0, m=1 observada en el inicio
del modo H. En los datos disponibles de los estudios de transición LH en plasmas calentados por radio-frecuencia en JET, la frecuencia del modo M parece escalar con la corriente de plasma dividida por la raíz cuadrada de la densidad de masa de los iones, lo que indica que posiblemente sea una onda poloidal de Alfvén. Nuestro objetivo es desarrollar modelos analíticos y numéricos de ondas Alfvén poloidales superficiales, para explicar las frecuencias observadas empíricamente.

Experimentos recientes en JET-ILW han demonstrado que es posible obtener simultáneamente buen confinamiento en modo H, en
condiciones estacionarias para la densidad y la temperature y con ELMs pequeños. Estos resultados se han obtenido con baja
collisionalidad en el pedestal y utilizando el escenario básico (Baseline) de ITER (con <math>q_{95}=3</math>, <math>H_{98}=1</math> y <math>\beta_N=2</math>). Esto hace de este nuevo regimen de operacion muy diferente de lo que se ha observado previamente en otros dispositivos de fusion (AUG, DIII-D y JT-60U. En este proyecto nos proponemos investigar la física responsable de la aparición de ELMs pequeños, el buen confinamiento y la ausencia de acumulación de impurezas en estas condiciones. Pretendemos contribuir a una mejor comprensión de los mecanismos físicos que afectan a la estabilidad del pedestal, a la turbulencia y al transporte de impurezas en la región del pedestal y del núcleo y, como resultado, contribuir a aumentar la precisión de las extrapolaciones para el ITER y otros dispositivos futuros.

En cuanto a los regímenes sin ELMs, proponemos investigar el modo QH. El modo QH es un estado estacionario del plasma, de interés
potencial para ITER y DEMO. Ha sido una prioridad del programa DIII-D porque permite el acceso a pedestales calientes con alto
confinamiento del núcleo y sin ELMs. No se sabe si puede desarrollarse y mantenerse con un diveror de Wolframio y una pared de Berilio.

Actualmente, Eurofusion está considerando la posibilidad de realizar futuros experimentos en modo QH en las campañas experimentales
del JET 2022-2023. Si se aprueba, este proyecto contribuiría a ellos. En cualquier caso, nos uniríamos a la colaboración entre AUG y DIIID para ejecutar y analizar experimentos de similitud.

== Description of the project ==

Con este proyecto queremos mejorar la calidad de las predicciones sobre los plasmas de ITER y DEMO, que son los próximos equipos de
fusión y el foco del programa de confinamiento magnetico europeo.

La propuesta aborda 3 aspectos fundamentales de la operación de ITER asociados a la física del pedestal: la transición L-H, regímenes
de ELMs pequeños, y el "Quiescent H-mode", también llamado mode QH, sin ELMs.

En cuanto a la transición L-H, proponemos continuar el trabajo experimental en el JET, especialmente ahora que hemos empezado a
obtener datos de la transición L-H en mezclas de tritio y deuterio-tritio (las más relevantes para la fusión), en el JET-ILW, con pared de Be y divertor de Wolframio. El trabajo experimental de la transición L-H implica la coordinación del equipo, el diseño del experimento, la preparación, la ejecución, el análisis de los datos y su interpretación.

En términos de la teoría L-H, estamos investigando la naturaleza del modo M, una oscilación magnética n=0, m=1 observada en el inicio
del modo H. En los datos disponibles de los estudios de transición LH en plasmas calentados por radio-frecuencia en JET, la frecuencia del modo M parece escalar con la corriente de plasma dividida por la raíz cuadrada de la densidad de masa de los iones, lo que indica que posiblemente sea una onda poloidal de Alfvén. Nuestro objetivo es desarrollar modelos analíticos y numéricos de ondas Alfvén poloidales superficiales, para explicar las frecuencias observadas empíricamente.

Experimentos recientes en JET-ILW han demonstrado que es posible obtener simultáneamente buen confinamiento en modo H, en
condiciones estacionarias para la densidad y la temperature y con ELMs pequeños. Estos resultados se han obtenido con baja
collisionalidad en el pedestal y utilizando el escenario básico (Baseline) de ITER (con <math>q_{95}=3</math>, <math>H_{98}=1</math> y <math>\beta_N=2</math>). Esto hace de este nuevo regimen de operacion muy diferente de lo que se ha observado previamente en otros dispositivos de fusion (AUG, DIII-D y JT-60U. En este proyecto nos proponemos investigar la física responsable de la aparición de ELMs pequeños, el buen confinamiento y la ausencia de acumulación de impurezas en estas condiciones. Pretendemos contribuir a una mejor comprensión de los mecanismos físicos que afectan a la estabilidad del pedestal, a la turbulencia y al transporte de impurezas en la región del pedestal y del núcleo y, como resultado, contribuir a aumentar la precisión de las extrapolaciones para el ITER y otros dispositivos futuros.

En cuanto a los regímenes sin ELMs, proponemos investigar el modo QH. El modo QH es un estado estacionario del plasma, de interés
potencial para ITER y DEMO. Ha sido una prioridad del programa DIII-D porque permite el acceso a pedestales calientes con alto
confinamiento del núcleo y sin ELMs. No se sabe si puede desarrollarse y mantenerse con un diveror de Wolframio y una pared de Berilio.

Actualmente, Eurofusion está considerando la posibilidad de realizar futuros experimentos en modo QH en las campañas experimentales
del JET 2022-2023. Si se aprueba, este proyecto contribuiría a ellos. En cualquier caso, nos uniríamos a la colaboración entre AUG y DIIID para ejecutar y analizar experimentos de similitud.

== Description of the project ==

Con este proyecto queremos mejorar la calidad de las predicciones sobre los plasmas de ITER y DEMO, que son los próximos equipos de
fusión y el foco del programa de confinamiento magnetico europeo.

La propuesta aborda 3 aspectos fundamentales de la operación de ITER asociados a la física del pedestal: la transición L-H, regímenes
de ELMs pequeños, y el "Quiescent H-mode", también llamado mode QH, sin ELMs.

En cuanto a la transición L-H, proponemos continuar el trabajo experimental en el JET, especialmente ahora que hemos empezado a
obtener datos de la transición L-H en mezclas de tritio y deuterio-tritio (las más relevantes para la fusión), en el JET-ILW, con pared de Be y divertor de Wolframio. El trabajo experimental de la transición L-H implica la coordinación del equipo, el diseño del experimento, la preparación, la ejecución, el análisis de los datos y su interpretación.

En términos de la teoría L-H, estamos investigando la naturaleza del modo M, una oscilación magnética n=0, m=1 observada en el inicio
del modo H. En los datos disponibles de los estudios de transición LH en plasmas calentados por radio-frecuencia en JET, la frecuencia del modo M parece escalar con la corriente de plasma dividida por la raíz cuadrada de la densidad de masa de los iones, lo que indica que posiblemente sea una onda poloidal de Alfvén. Nuestro objetivo es desarrollar modelos analíticos y numéricos de ondas Alfvén poloidales superficiales, para explicar las frecuencias observadas empíricamente.

Experimentos recientes en JET-ILW han demonstrado que es posible obtener simultáneamente buen confinamiento en modo H, en
condiciones estacionarias para la densidad y la temperature y con ELMs pequeños. Estos resultados se han obtenido con baja
collisionalidad en el pedestal y utilizando el escenario básico (Baseline) de ITER (con <math>q_{95}=3</math>, <math>H_{98}=1</math> y <math>\beta_N=2</math>). Esto hace de este nuevo regimen de operacion muy diferente de lo que se ha observado previamente en otros dispositivos de fusion (AUG, DIII-D y JT-60U. En este proyecto nos proponemos investigar la física responsable de la aparición de ELMs pequeños, el buen confinamiento y la ausencia de acumulación de impurezas en estas condiciones. Pretendemos contribuir a una mejor comprensión de los mecanismos físicos que afectan a la estabilidad del pedestal, a la turbulencia y al transporte de impurezas en la región del pedestal y del núcleo y, como resultado, contribuir a aumentar la precisión de las extrapolaciones para el ITER y otros dispositivos futuros.

En cuanto a los regímenes sin ELMs, proponemos investigar el modo QH. El modo QH es un estado estacionario del plasma, de interés
potencial para ITER y DEMO. Ha sido una prioridad del programa DIII-D porque permite el acceso a pedestales calientes con alto
confinamiento del núcleo y sin ELMs. No se sabe si puede desarrollarse y mantenerse con un diveror de Wolframio y una pared de Berilio.

Actualmente, Eurofusion está considerando la posibilidad de realizar futuros experimentos en modo QH en las campañas experimentales
del JET 2022-2023. Si se aprueba, este proyecto contribuiría a ellos. En cualquier caso, nos uniríamos a la colaboración entre AUG y DIIID para ejecutar y analizar experimentos de similitud.

== Description of the project ==

Con este proyecto queremos mejorar la calidad de las predicciones sobre los plasmas de ITER y DEMO, que son los próximos equipos de
fusión y el foco del programa de confinamiento magnetico europeo.

La propuesta aborda 3 aspectos fundamentales de la operación de ITER asociados a la física del pedestal: la transición L-H, regímenes
de ELMs pequeños, y el "Quiescent H-mode", también llamado mode QH, sin ELMs.

En cuanto a la transición L-H, proponemos continuar el trabajo experimental en el JET, especialmente ahora que hemos empezado a
obtener datos de la transición L-H en mezclas de tritio y deuterio-tritio (las más relevantes para la fusión), en el JET-ILW, con pared de Be y divertor de Wolframio. El trabajo experimental de la transición L-H implica la coordinación del equipo, el diseño del experimento, la preparación, la ejecución, el análisis de los datos y su interpretación.

En términos de la teoría L-H, estamos investigando la naturaleza del modo M, una oscilación magnética n=0, m=1 observada en el inicio
del modo H. En los datos disponibles de los estudios de transición LH en plasmas calentados por radio-frecuencia en JET, la frecuencia del modo M parece escalar con la corriente de plasma dividida por la raíz cuadrada de la densidad de masa de los iones, lo que indica que posiblemente sea una onda poloidal de Alfvén. Nuestro objetivo es desarrollar modelos analíticos y numéricos de ondas Alfvén poloidales superficiales, para explicar las frecuencias observadas empíricamente.

Experimentos recientes en JET-ILW han demonstrado que es posible obtener simultáneamente buen confinamiento en modo H, en
condiciones estacionarias para la densidad y la temperature y con ELMs pequeños. Estos resultados se han obtenido con baja
collisionalidad en el pedestal y utilizando el escenario básico (Baseline) de ITER (con <math>q_{95}=3</math>, <math>H_{98}=1</math> y <math>\beta_N=2</math>). Esto hace de este nuevo regimen de operacion muy diferente de lo que se ha observado previamente en otros dispositivos de fusion (AUG, DIII-D y JT-60U. En este proyecto nos proponemos investigar la física responsable de la aparición de ELMs pequeños, el buen confinamiento y la ausencia de acumulación de impurezas en estas condiciones. Pretendemos contribuir a una mejor comprensión de los mecanismos físicos que afectan a la estabilidad del pedestal, a la turbulencia y al transporte de impurezas en la región del pedestal y del núcleo y, como resultado, contribuir a aumentar la precisión de las extrapolaciones para el ITER y otros dispositivos futuros.

En cuanto a los regímenes sin ELMs, proponemos investigar el modo QH. El modo QH es un estado estacionario del plasma, de interés
potencial para ITER y DEMO. Ha sido una prioridad del programa DIII-D porque permite el acceso a pedestales calientes con alto
confinamiento del núcleo y sin ELMs. No se sabe si puede desarrollarse y mantenerse con un diveror de Wolframio y una pared de Berilio.

Actualmente, Eurofusion está considerando la posibilidad de realizar futuros experimentos en modo QH en las campañas experimentales
del JET 2022-2023. Si se aprueba, este proyecto contribuiría a ellos. En cualquier caso, nos uniríamos a la colaboración entre AUG y DIIID para ejecutar y analizar experimentos de similitud.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

== Description of the project ==

Con este proyecto queremos mejorar la calidad de las predicciones sobre los plasmas de ITER y DEMO, que son los próximos equipos de
fusión y el foco del programa de confinamiento magnetico europeo.

La propuesta aborda 3 aspectos fundamentales de la operación de ITER asociados a la física del pedestal: la transición L-H, regímenes
de ELMs pequeños, y el "Quiescent H-mode", también llamado mode QH, sin ELMs.

En cuanto a la transición L-H, proponemos continuar el trabajo experimental en el JET, especialmente ahora que hemos empezado a
obtener datos de la transición L-H en mezclas de tritio y deuterio-tritio (las más relevantes para la fusión), en el JET-ILW, con pared de Be y divertor de Wolframio. El trabajo experimental de la transición L-H implica la coordinación del equipo, el diseño del experimento, la preparación, la ejecución, el análisis de los datos y su interpretación.

En términos de la teoría L-H, estamos investigando la naturaleza del modo M, una oscilación magnética n=0, m=1 observada en el inicio
del modo H. En los datos disponibles de los estudios de transición LH en plasmas calentados por radio-frecuencia en JET, la frecuencia del modo M parece escalar con la corriente de plasma dividida por la raíz cuadrada de la densidad de masa de los iones, lo que indica que posiblemente sea una onda poloidal de Alfvén. Nuestro objetivo es desarrollar modelos analíticos y numéricos de ondas Alfvén poloidales superficiales, para explicar las frecuencias observadas empíricamente.

Experimentos recientes en JET-ILW han demonstrado que es posible obtener simultáneamente buen confinamiento en modo H, en
condiciones estacionarias para la densidad y la temperature y con ELMs pequeños. Estos resultados se han obtenido con baja
collisionalidad en el pedestal y utilizando el escenario básico (Baseline) de ITER (con <math>q_{95}=3</math>, <math>H_{98}=1</math> y <math>\beta_N=2</math>). Esto hace de este nuevo regimen de operacion muy diferente de lo que se ha observado previamente en otros dispositivos de fusion (AUG, DIII-D y JT-60U. En este proyecto nos proponemos investigar la física responsable de la aparición de ELMs pequeños, el buen confinamiento y la ausencia de acumulación de impurezas en estas condiciones. Pretendemos contribuir a una mejor comprensión de los mecanismos físicos que afectan a la estabilidad del pedestal, a la turbulencia y al transporte de impurezas en la región del pedestal y del núcleo y, como resultado, contribuir a aumentar la precisión de las extrapolaciones para el ITER y otros dispositivos futuros.

En cuanto a los regímenes sin ELMs, proponemos investigar el modo QH. El modo QH es un estado estacionario del plasma, de interés
potencial para ITER y DEMO. Ha sido una prioridad del programa DIII-D porque permite el acceso a pedestales calientes con alto
confinamiento del núcleo y sin ELMs. No se sabe si puede desarrollarse y mantenerse con un diveror de Wolframio y una pared de Berilio.

Actualmente, Eurofusion está considerando la posibilidad de realizar futuros experimentos en modo QH en las campañas experimentales
del JET 2022-2023. Si se aprueba, este proyecto contribuiría a ellos. En cualquier caso, nos uniríamos a la colaboración entre AUG y DIIID para ejecutar y analizar experimentos de similitud.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

== Description of the project ==

Con este proyecto queremos mejorar la calidad de las predicciones sobre los plasmas de ITER y DEMO, que son los próximos equipos de
fusión y el foco del programa de confinamiento magnetico europeo.

La propuesta aborda 3 aspectos fundamentales de la operación de ITER asociados a la física del pedestal: la transición L-H, regímenes
de ELMs pequeños, y el "Quiescent H-mode", también llamado mode QH, sin ELMs.

En cuanto a la transición L-H, proponemos continuar el trabajo experimental en el JET, especialmente ahora que hemos empezado a
obtener datos de la transición L-H en mezclas de tritio y deuterio-tritio (las más relevantes para la fusión), en el JET-ILW, con pared de Be y divertor de Wolframio. El trabajo experimental de la transición L-H implica la coordinación del equipo, el diseño del experimento, la preparación, la ejecución, el análisis de los datos y su interpretación.

En términos de la teoría L-H, estamos investigando la naturaleza del modo M, una oscilación magnética n=0, m=1 observada en el inicio
del modo H. En los datos disponibles de los estudios de transición LH en plasmas calentados por radio-frecuencia en JET, la frecuencia del modo M parece escalar con la corriente de plasma dividida por la raíz cuadrada de la densidad de masa de los iones, lo que indica que posiblemente sea una onda poloidal de Alfvén. Nuestro objetivo es desarrollar modelos analíticos y numéricos de ondas Alfvén poloidales superficiales, para explicar las frecuencias observadas empíricamente.

Experimentos recientes en JET-ILW han demonstrado que es posible obtener simultáneamente buen confinamiento en modo H, en
condiciones estacionarias para la densidad y la temperature y con ELMs pequeños. Estos resultados se han obtenido con baja
collisionalidad en el pedestal y utilizando el escenario básico (Baseline) de ITER (con <math>q_{95}=3</math>, <math>H_{98}=1</math> y <math>\beta_N=2</math>). Esto hace de este nuevo regimen de operacion muy diferente de lo que se ha observado previamente en otros dispositivos de fusion (AUG, DIII-D y JT-60U. En este proyecto nos proponemos investigar la física responsable de la aparición de ELMs pequeños, el buen confinamiento y la ausencia de acumulación de impurezas en estas condiciones. Pretendemos contribuir a una mejor comprensión de los mecanismos físicos que afectan a la estabilidad del pedestal, a la turbulencia y al transporte de impurezas en la región del pedestal y del núcleo y, como resultado, contribuir a aumentar la precisión de las extrapolaciones para el ITER y otros dispositivos futuros.

En cuanto a los regímenes sin ELMs, proponemos investigar el modo QH. El modo QH es un estado estacionario del plasma, de interés
potencial para ITER y DEMO. Ha sido una prioridad del programa DIII-D porque permite el acceso a pedestales calientes con alto
confinamiento del núcleo y sin ELMs. No se sabe si puede desarrollarse y mantenerse con un diveror de Wolframio y una pared de Berilio.

Actualmente, Eurofusion está considerando la posibilidad de realizar futuros experimentos en modo QH en las campañas experimentales
del JET 2022-2023. Si se aprueba, este proyecto contribuiría a ellos. En cualquier caso, nos uniríamos a la colaboración entre AUG y DIIID para ejecutar y analizar experimentos de similitud.

collisionalidad en el pedestal y utilizando el escenario básico (Baseline) de ITER (con <math>q_{95}=3</math>, <math>H_{98}=1</math> y <math>\beta_N=2</math>). Esto hace de este nuevo regimen de operacion muy diferente de lo que se ha observado previamente en otros dispositivos de fusion (AUG, DIII-D y JT-60U. En este proyecto nos proponemos investigar la física responsable de la aparición de ELMs pequeños, el buen confinamiento y la ausencia de acumulación de impurezas en estas condiciones. Pretendemos contribuir a una mejor comprensión de los mecanismos físicos que afectan a la estabilidad del pedestal, a la turbulencia y al transporte de impurezas en la región del pedestal y del núcleo y, como resultado, contribuir a aumentar la precisión de las extrapolaciones para el ITER y otros dispositivos futuros.

En cuanto a los regímenes sin ELMs, proponemos investigar el modo QH. El modo QH es un estado estacionario del plasma, de interés
potencial para ITER y DEMO. Ha sido una prioridad del programa DIII-D porque permite el acceso a pedestales calientes con alto
confinamiento del núcleo y sin ELMs. No se sabe si puede desarrollarse y mantenerse con un diveror de Wolframio y una pared de Berilio.

Actualmente, Eurofusion está considerando la posibilidad de realizar futuros experimentos en modo QH en las campañas experimentales
del JET 2022-2023. Si se aprueba, este proyecto contribuiría a ellos. En cualquier caso, nos uniríamos a la colaboración entre AUG y DIIID para ejecutar y analizar experimentos de similitud.

== Description of the project ==

Con este proyecto queremos mejorar la calidad de las predicciones sobre los plasmas de ITER y DEMO, que son los próximos equipos de
fusión y el foco del programa de confinamiento magnetico europeo.

La propuesta aborda 3 aspectos fundamentales de la operación de ITER asociados a la física del pedestal: la transición L-H, regímenes
de ELMs pequeños, y el "Quiescent H-mode", también llamado mode QH, sin ELMs.

En cuanto a la transición L-H, proponemos continuar el trabajo experimental en el JET, especialmente ahora que hemos empezado a
obtener datos de la transición L-H en mezclas de tritio y deuterio-tritio (las más relevantes para la fusión), en el JET-ILW, con pared de Be y divertor de Wolframio. El trabajo experimental de la transición L-H implica la coordinación del equipo, el diseño del experimento, la preparación, la ejecución, el análisis de los datos y su interpretación.

En términos de la teoría L-H, estamos investigando la naturaleza del modo M, una oscilación magnética n=0, m=1 observada en el inicio
del modo H. En los datos disponibles de los estudios de transición LH en plasmas calentados por radio-frecuencia en JET, la frecuencia del modo M parece escalar con la corriente de plasma dividida por la raíz cuadrada de la densidad de masa de los iones, lo que indica que posiblemente sea una onda poloidal de Alfvén. Nuestro objetivo es desarrollar modelos analíticos y numéricos de ondas Alfvén poloidales superficiales, para explicar las frecuencias observadas empíricamente.

Experimentos recientes en JET-ILW han demonstrado que es posible obtener simultáneamente buen confinamiento en modo H, en
condiciones estacionarias para la densidad y la temperature y con ELMs pequeños. Estos resultados se han obtenido con baja
collisionalidad en el pedestal y utilizando el escenario básico (Baseline) de ITER (con <math>q_{95}=3</math>, <math>H_{98}=1</math> y <math>\beta_N=2</math>). Esto hace de este nuevo regimen de operacion muy diferente de lo que se ha observado previamente en otros dispositivos de fusion (AUG, DIII-D y JT-60U. En este proyecto nos proponemos investigar la física responsable de la aparición de ELMs pequeños, el buen confinamiento y la ausencia de acumulación de impurezas en estas condiciones. Pretendemos contribuir a una mejor comprensión de los mecanismos físicos que afectan a la estabilidad del pedestal, a la turbulencia y al transporte de impurezas en la región del pedestal y del núcleo y, como resultado, contribuir a aumentar la precisión de las extrapolaciones para el ITER y otros dispositivos futuros.

En cuanto a los regímenes sin ELMs, proponemos investigar el modo QH. El modo QH es un estado estacionario del plasma, de interés
potencial para ITER y DEMO. Ha sido una prioridad del programa DIII-D porque permite el acceso a pedestales calientes con alto
confinamiento del núcleo y sin ELMs. No se sabe si puede desarrollarse y mantenerse con un diveror de Wolframio y una pared de Berilio.

Actualmente, Eurofusion está considerando la posibilidad de realizar futuros experimentos en modo QH en las campañas experimentales
del JET 2022-2023. Si se aprueba, este proyecto contribuiría a ellos. En cualquier caso, nos uniríamos a la colaboración entre AUG y DIIID para ejecutar y analizar experimentos de similitud.

== Description of the project ==

Con este proyecto queremos mejorar la calidad de las predicciones sobre los plasmas de ITER y DEMO, que son los próximos equipos de
fusión y el foco del programa de confinamiento magnetico europeo.

La propuesta aborda 3 aspectos fundamentales de la operación de ITER asociados a la física del pedestal: la transición L-H, regímenes
de ELMs pequeños, y el "Quiescent H-mode", también llamado mode QH, sin ELMs.

En cuanto a la transición L-H, proponemos continuar el trabajo experimental en el JET, especialmente ahora que hemos empezado a
obtener datos de la transición L-H en mezclas de tritio y deuterio-tritio (las más relevantes para la fusión), en el JET-ILW, con pared de Be y divertor de Wolframio. El trabajo experimental de la transición L-H implica la coordinación del equipo, el diseño del experimento, la preparación, la ejecución, el análisis de los datos y su interpretación.

En términos de la teoría L-H, estamos investigando la naturaleza del modo M, una oscilación magnética n=0, m=1 observada en el inicio
del modo H. En los datos disponibles de los estudios de transición LH en plasmas calentados por radio-frecuencia en JET, la frecuencia del modo M parece escalar con la corriente de plasma dividida por la raíz cuadrada de la densidad de masa de los iones, lo que indica que posiblemente sea una onda poloidal de Alfvén. Nuestro objetivo es desarrollar modelos analíticos y numéricos de ondas Alfvén poloidales superficiales, para explicar las frecuencias observadas empíricamente.

Experimentos recientes en JET-ILW han demonstrado que es posible obtener simultáneamente buen confinamiento en modo H, en
condiciones estacionarias para la densidad y la temperature y con ELMs pequeños. Estos resultados se han obtenido con baja
collisionalidad en el pedestal y utilizando el escenario básico (Baseline) de ITER (con <math>q_{95}=3</math>, <math>H_{98}=1</math> y <math>\beta_N=2</math>). Esto hace de este nuevo regimen de operacion muy diferente de lo que se ha observado previamente en otros dispositivos de fusion (AUG, DIII-D y JT-60U. En este proyecto nos proponemos investigar la física responsable de la aparición de ELMs pequeños, el buen confinamiento y la ausencia de acumulación de impurezas en estas condiciones. Pretendemos contribuir a una mejor comprensión de los mecanismos físicos que afectan a la estabilidad del pedestal, a la turbulencia y al transporte de impurezas en la región del pedestal y del núcleo y, como resultado, contribuir a aumentar la precisión de las extrapolaciones para el ITER y otros dispositivos futuros.

En cuanto a los regímenes sin ELMs, proponemos investigar el modo QH. El modo QH es un estado estacionario del plasma, de interés
potencial para ITER y DEMO. Ha sido una prioridad del programa DIII-D porque permite el acceso a pedestales calientes con alto
confinamiento del núcleo y sin ELMs. No se sabe si puede desarrollarse y mantenerse con un diveror de Wolframio y una pared de Berilio.

Actualmente, Eurofusion está considerando la posibilidad de realizar futuros experimentos en modo QH en las campañas experimentales
del JET 2022-2023. Si se aprueba, este proyecto contribuiría a ellos. En cualquier caso, nos uniríamos a la colaboración entre AUG y DIIID para ejecutar y analizar experimentos de similitud.

The scope of the [http://www.eps.org/ European Physical Society] (EPS) Conference on Plasma Physics encompasses the fields of magnetic confinement fusion research, laser-plasma interaction and inertial confinement fusion, as well as dusty, low temperature and astrophysical plasmas.

Initially, the conference was denominated "European Conference on Controlled Fusion and Plasma Physics". Later, it was called the "European Physical Society Conference on Controlled Fusion and Plasma Physics". From 2004 onwards, this was changed to the "European Physical Society Conference on Plasma Physics".

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

'''Characterising W radiation in JET-ILW plasmas'''
Studied radiation from W ablated into L-mode plasmas. 
Found that W propagates into the plasma along a plume. In the core sawteeth dominates W redistribution.There is some evidence that W radiates considerably below 1 keV

'''Effect of fuelling location on pedestal and ELMs in JET''' 
Found that, with W divertor, fuelling location can affect pedestal Te. Also showing effect of W on pedestal. This is the first experiment that showed that when the outer strike is in the divertor corner (near the pump) the plasma has good confinement, while strike in tile 5 correlates with poor confinement.

'''Study of high temperature pedestals'''

Specific experiments were made at JET to study high temperature [[Pedestal|pedestal]]s, in the range Te_ped ~2.5-5 keV. The idea was to see if the [[Edge Localized Modes|ELMs]] are qualitatively different when resistivity and collisionality are low. The surprising result of the experiment was a new insight on pedestal stability: with low gas fuelling and low recycling conditions (required to achieve high temperature pedestals) an Outer Mode often appears, delaying ELMs. The outer mode had been assumed to be an ideal kink, unstable in the steep gradient region of the pedestal, which would eventually grow into an ELM. We have now found that the outer mode is a fairly stable current ribbon, lasting as much as 1.5 s, located at the top of the pedestal. There are tantalising similarities with the EHO observed in DIII-D. This could provide a new route to ELM-free operation.

Esolano: /* List of conferences */

[[File:Eps_logo.jpg|168px|right|alt text]]

The scope of the [http://www.eps.org/ European Physical Society] (EPS) Conference on Plasma Physics encompasses the fields of magnetic confinement fusion research, laser-plasma interaction and inertial confinement fusion, as well as dusty, low temperature and astrophysical plasmas.

Initially, the conference was denominated "European Conference on Controlled Fusion and Plasma Physics". Later, it was called the "European Physical Society Conference on Controlled Fusion and Plasma Physics". From 2004 onwards, this was changed to the "European Physical Society Conference on Plasma Physics".

== List of conferences ==

Contributed papers presented at every EPS Conference on Plasma Physics back to the first one in Munich in 1966 can now be accessed through an alternate single web page

TJ-II

2024-05-24T12:17:56Z

Esolano: /* History */

[[File:TJII_model.jpg|500px|thumb|right|TJ-II Model]]

TJ-II is a flexible Heliac installed at Spain's [[Laboratorio Nacional de Fusión|National Fusion Laboratory]].
It is one of Spain's [https://www.ciencia.gob.es/Organismos-y-Centros/Infraestructuras-Cientificas-y-Tecnicas-Singulares-ICTS.html Unique Scientific and Technical Infrastructures].
It is currently operational.

== History ==

[[File:Foto_grupo_Fusion_1996.jpg|300px|thumb|left|TJ-II and the TJ-II Team in 1996]]

The flexible Heliac TJ-II was designed on the basis of calculations performed by the team of physicists and engineers of [[CIEMAT]], in collaboration with the Oak Ridge National Laboratory ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ORNL ORNL], USA) and the Institut für PlasmaPhysik at Garching ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max-Planck-Institut_f%C3%BCr_Plasmaphysik IPP], Germany).

The [[TJ-II:Construction|construction of this flexible Heliac]] was carried out in parts according to its constitutive elements, which were commissioned to various European companies, although 60% of the investments reverted back to Spanish companies.

== Precedents ==

TJ-II is the third magnetic confinement device in a series. In 1983, the device [[TJ-I]] was taken into operation.
The denomination of this device is due to the abbreviation of "Tokamak de la Junta de Energía Nuclear", this being the former denomination of [[CIEMAT]]. The abbreviation was maintained for successive devices for administrative reasons.

In 1994, the torsatron [[TJ-IU]] was taken into operation. This was the first magnetic confinement device entirely built in Spain. Currently, [[TJ-IU]] is located at the [http://www.ipf.uni-stuttgart.de/index_e.html University of Stuttgart] in Germany under the name of [[TJ-K]] (the 'K' stands for Kiel, its first location in Germany, before arriving in Stuttgart).

== Description ==

[[File:TJ-II_3D_perspective.jpg|300px|thumb|right|TJ-II perspective view]]

In TJ-II, the magnetic trap is obtained by means of [[TJ-II:Coil system|various sets of coils]] that completely determine the magnetic surfaces before plasma initiation. The toroidal field is created by 32 coils. The three-dimensional twist of the central axis of the configuration is generated by means of two central coils: one circular and one helical. The horizontal position of the plasma is controlled by the vertical field coils. The combined action of these magnetic fields generate bean-shaped magnetic surfaces that guide the particles of the plasma so that they do not collide with the [[TJ-II:Vacuum system|vacuum vessel]] wall.

TJ-II discharges last around 0.25 s, with a repetition frequency of about 7 minutes.
