High-field side scrape-off layer investigation: Plasma profiles and impurity screening behavior in near-double-null configurations

New experiments on Alcator C-Mod reveal that the favorable impurity screening characteristics of the high-field side (HFS) scrape-off layer (SOL), previously reported for single null geometries, is retained in double null configurations, despite the formation of an extremely thin SOL. In balanced do...
