1 Report from A+M Data Centre, RRC Kurchatov Institute Yu.V.Martynenko 20th Meeting of the Atomic and Molecular Data Centers and ALADDIN Network Vienna, September 2009

2 The main activities on A+M/PSI DATA: 1. New Data generation. (Experiment, theory, codes). 2. Computer code for tokamak plasma processes. 3. Data Acquisition System + (DAS+). System for operation with experimental data of various devices of controlled nuclear fusion (storage, transmission, processing and results representation). The software allows to create Data warehouse for experimental data and possibility for multi-installations fusion researches.

5 PLASMA RADIATION Ultra fast method of calculating the ion s dynamic contribution to spectral line shapes. (A. Calisti,, C. Mossey,, F. Rosmej, B. Talin France. L.A. Bureyeva,, V.S. Lisitsa -Russia. Phys. Rev. E to be published) The method gives the intensity in dynamic Stark spectral line shape as a functional from static Stark lines shape. New method is faster than the standard Frequency Fluctuation Model (FFM( B.Talin et al. PRA 1995) ) by nearly two orders of magnitude. Method significantly simplifies the radiation transport modeling, opens new possibilities for integrated modeling of the edge and divertor plasma in tokamaks. 5

6 PLASMA RADIATION Fast code nl-kinryd (collisional-radiative kinetics of Rydberg atomic states) M.B. Kadomtsev, M.G. Levashova, V.S. Lisitsa: Calculation of two-dimensional (i.e., n & l ) collisional-radiative steady-state kinetics of Rydberg atomic states and of line intensities The Coulomb collisions of atomic electron with plasma electrons and ions are treated classically. Radiative cascade is treated either with quantum cascade matrix, generalized to the case of collisions or in its quasi-classical version with k-step radiative transitions (for k>k*). The code is applicable to a wide range of fusion and astrophysical plasmas and is especially important for selective sources of external population in multilevel atom/ion (n>>1). 6

7 PLASMA RADIATION Fast code: ESMEABRR (Electron + Static Many-Electron Atom) (Bremsstrahlung + Radiative Recombination) V.I. Kogan, A.B. Kukushkin kuka@nfi.kiae.ru Semi-analytic description of Bremsstrahlung and radiative recombination cross sections for collisions of quasiclassical electrons with a static many electron atoms and ions. The code has ~30% agreement with quantum mechanical numerical modeling by R.H. Pratt et al. for all frequencies and any stripping atom in the range 0.1 ~< ε ~< 1 (ε = Ea TF /Ze 2 = 32.6 E(keV)/Z 4/3, E is electron energy, Z is nucleus electric charge, a TF is Thomas-Fermi raduis). The code is applicable to a wide range of fusion plasmas including hot plasmas with multi charged ions for inertial confinement fusion.

12 TUNGSTEN AND CARBON SURFACE CHANGE UNDER HIGH DOSE PLASMA EXPOSURE. CONCLUSION Performed experiments together with previous investigations show: Surface composition dynamic in W+1%La 2 O 3 is result of etching, No real element redistribution was observed. Surface etching is possible even at 20 ev D + ion irradiation, and increases with ion energy and mass. Surface composition dynamic in RGT graphite is result of Ti migration and evaporation from the surface. Ti redistribution in RGT graphite is strongly target temperature dependent. 12
