| Title | 425: Extension of advanced inductive domain to lower q95 | ||

| Description: | The present database shows that the fusion gain figure of merit (G) continues to increase with lower q95. JT-60U has run transiently at q95=2.2 and JET has run at q95=2.7. The purpose of this proposal is to determine the minimum q95 below which either G begins to decrease or the disruption frequency becomes unacceptable. | ||
| Experimental Approach/Plan: | Begin with discharges from 2004 at q95=2.8. Decrease toroidal field. If problems with too low power, develop higher B and I discharges at equal q95 to increase the power demand. Then reduce q95 by reducing B. | ||
