1 Recent Results in Impurity Transport in Tokamaks D R Mikkelsen PPPL 2nd Coordinated Working Group Meeting Greifswald, June 4-6, 2007 D. R. Mikkelsen, Coordinated Working Group Meeting, Greifswald, 4-7 June 2007
2 Original motivation for this presentation Density dependent impurity accumulation in stellarators is very striking Nakamura, et al., Nucl. Fusion 43 (2003) 219; PPCF 44 (2002) 2121 Burhenn, et al., Fusion Sci. Tech. 46 (2004) 115 Why does transport qualitatively change with only a small change in collisionality? Expect collisionality to be important in both neoclassical and turbulent transport. Good topic for CWG study. Experimental data exists Apply the transport simulation codes. For this talk I searched for evidence of impurity accumulation in tokamaks with similar density thresholds or windows. No one could provide any examples in tokamaks. Plan B for talk: summarize recent work on tokamak impurity transport. D. R. Mikkelsen, Coordinated Working Group Meeting, Greifswald, 4-7 June 2007
3 Overview Historical background: general characterization of impurity transport in tokamaks Recent experiments in JET and TCV Gyrokinetic simulations of impurity transport Multi-color soft X-ray system on NSTX New crystal X-ray spectrometer on C-Mod D. R. Mikkelsen, Coordinated Working Group Meeting, Greifswald, 4-7 June 2007
4 Characterization of Impurity Transport in Tokamaks While neoclassical-level transport is occasionally observed: Wade, et al., Phys. Rev Letters 84 (2000) 282, ion temperature gradient screening Neu, et al., Nucl. Fusion 45 (2005) 209, tungsten accumulation with low anomalous D Adding some RF heating removes the accumulation Dux, et al., Nucl. Fusion 44 (2004) 260, accumulation in ITB region, Z dependence Takenaga, et al., Nucl. Fusion 45 (2003) 1235, argon accumulation with low anomalous D Additional ECH can exhaust the argon. Helium and carbon don t accumulate. Scavino, et al., Plasma Phys. Control. Fusion 46 (2004) Neoclassical pinch traps silicon inside sawtooth mixing radius in TCV. Impurity diffusivity is mainly much higher than the neoclassical level. This prevents strong neoclassical accumulation! Giroud, Nuclear Fusion 47 (2007) 313 Guirlet, et al., Plasma Phys. Control. Fusion 48 (2007) B63 Comprehensive discussion of experiment and theory, little original data Scavino, et al., Plasma Phys. Control. Fusion 45 (2003) 1961 Shape dependence in anomalous impurity transport in TCV Rice, et al., Phys. Plasmas 7 (2000) 1825 Ohmic and L-mode plasmas characterized by strong D, weak pinch D. R. Mikkelsen, Coordinated Working Group Meeting, Greifswald, 4-7 June 2007
5 Impurity Accumulation in Tokamaks This page summarizes Guirlet, et al., Plasma Phys. Control. Fusion 48 (2007) B63 Most comprehensive recent discussion of experiment and theory. Impurity densities are often more peaked than the electron density: Ida K et al 1987 Phys. Rev. Lett Pasini D et al 1992 Plasma Phys. Control. Fusion Dux R et al 1999 Nucl. Fusion Takenaga H et al 2003 Nucl. Fusion Zablotsky, et al., 2006 IAEA, EX/P3-7 This is neoclassically expected, Hirshman and Sigmar 1981 Nucl. Fusion , but neoclassical predictions are seldom quantitatively correct. Turbulence is believed to be generally more important, but some enhanced confinement regimes allow neoclassical accumulation to occur. Dux R et al 1999 Nucl. Fusion Sunn-Pedersen T et al 2000 Nucl. Fusion Wade M R et al 2000 Phys. Rev. Lett Jackson G L et al 1991 Phys. Rev. Lett Additional electron heating raises D and prevents accumulation (enhances turbulent transport?)

7 Additional historical references from J. E. Rice, et al., Phys. Plasmas 7 (2000) 1825 Impurity confinement in tokamak plasmas has been studied extensively (Ref. 25 and references therein). Impurity transport in Ohmic L-mode plasmas is generally characterized as anomalous,26 32 with diffusion coefficients ranging from 100 to 1000 times larger than neoclassical predictions.33 In neutral beam and ICRF H-mode plasmas, longer impurity confinement is observed, characterized by a large edge inward convection velocity,34 39 similar to neoclassical predictions. There are few direct measurements of impurity transport in Ohmic H-mode plasmas, other than some documented increases in the global Zeff 25 M. Mattioli, R. Giannella, R. Myrnas et al., Nucl.

8 Theoretical Turbulent Impurity Transport General discussion of different effects contributing to impurity convection found in Garbet, et al., Plasma Phys. Control. Fusion 46 (2004) B557 Angioni, ITPA meeting, 7-10 May 2007, Lausanne Quasi-linear calculations of density peaking factor, V/D for many impurity species and for many plasma conditions: Giroud, Chengdu IAEA, EX/8-3 Work of Angioni on AUG & JET simulations is compared with experiment. Angioni, Phys. Plasmas 14 (2007) Z dependence of RV/D in AUG from simulations. Angioni and Peeters, Phys. Rev. Letters 96 (2006) Idealized ITG and TEM regimes; comparison with analytic fluid pinches Estrada-Mila, et al., Phys. Plasmas 12 (2005) Nonlinear gyrokinetic particle transport: He-D and He-D-T D/V model is consistent with simulations (flux is offset-linear with grad-n I ) (also in my C-Mod nonlinear simulations); quasi-linear work assumes this form. Someone will compare this with the JET helium transport experiments? Many opposing convection terms in the theory, only one simple generalization is possible: no strong anomalous pinch is found that creates impurity accumulation turbulent impurity pinches are certainly common, but density peaking saturates. Turbulent diffusivity minimizes impurity density peaking. D. R. Mikkelsen, Coordinated Working Group Meeting, Greifswald, 4-7 June 2007

14 Experiment Department Diagnostic Developmeny Division Diagnostic Initiatives: X-ray Crystal Diagnostic: The new X-ray imaging crystal spectrometer for profile measurements of the ion temperature and toroidal rotation on Alcator C-Mod was installed on April 12, 2007 and provided the first spatially resolved spectra of H-like and He-like argon on April 13, The spectrometer is equipped with two spherically bent quartz crystals and four PILATUS II detector modules. Spectra of He-like argon were recorded from the entire 70 cm high cross-section of the plasma with a spatial resolution of 1 cm and use of three PILATUS II detector modules; spectra of H-like argon spectra were recorded with only one PILATUS II detector module from the central region of the plasma. (The spectra of H-like argon are important for Ti & rotation measurements at higher electron temperatures when the emissivity profile for He-like argon is expected to be hollow.) The layout of the spectrometer and the first spectral data from C-Mod are shown. 1
