MHD stability constraints on divertor heat flux width in DIII-D
The radial width of the exhaust heat flux flowing in the SOL of DIII-D is found to expand at high input power and plasma density, consistent with MHD ballooning stability limits. At low heating power, ~3 MW, the SOL width remains constant and consistent with established empirical scaling dependent o...
