Title 203: Characterization and optimization of H-mode plasmas
Name:Pete Politzer () Affiliation:General Atomics
Research Area:ITER Demonstration Discharges Presentation time: Not requested
Co-Author(s): --
Description: Determine the beta limits and optimize the confinement of an H-mode plasma in both the ITER shape and in an optimized shape. Develop a modern reference H-mode plasma.
Experimental Approach/Plan:
Background: There has been little or no work on improving the performance of standard H-mode plasmas in DIII-D in recent years. This experiment will update the H-mode benchmark plasma.
