2D electron density profile evolution during detachment in Super-X divertor L-mode discharges on MAST-U

The improved performance of the long-legged alternative divertor configurations on MAST-U, combining strong baffling and total flux expansion, results in stronger power and momentum losses. These lead to lower electron temperatures and peak particle fluxes at the target compared to conventional dive...
