Study of Scrape-Off-Layer Width in Ohmic and Lower Hybrid Wave Heated Double-Null Divertor Plasma in EAST
Edge profiles in Ohmic and lower hybrid (LH) wave heated discharges in EAST are presented. A comparison of the measured profiles is made with those from the theoretical prediction for the scrape-off-layer (SOL) width.

Summary: | Edge profiles in Ohmic and lower hybrid (LH) wave heated discharges in EAST are presented. A comparison of the measured profiles is made with those from the theoretical prediction for the scrape-off-layer (SOL) width. The edge plasma parameters are diagnosed by a triple probe divertor diagnostic system and fast reciprocating probes at the outer mid-plane. The experimental results show that the SOL width of double-null (DN) divertor plasmas in EAST appears to exhibit a negative dependence on the power crossing the separatrix, which is consistent with the collisional SOL scalings of JET and Alcator C-Mod. This will provide useful information for extrapolation to the ITER SOL width scaling for power deposition. |
