Title	169: Runaway flattop mitigation by Neon shattered pellet injection
Name:	Nicolas Commaux commaux@fusion.gat.com	Affiliation:	Oak Ridge National Lab
Research Area:	Disruption Mitigation	Presentation time:	Not requested
Co-Author(s):	L. Baylor, E. Hollmann, D. Humphreys, P. Parks, N. Eidietis, J. Wesley, V. Izzo	ITPA Joint Experiment :	No
Description:		ITER IO Urgent Research Task :	Yes
Experimental Approach/Plan:
Background:	Runaway formation in ITER might be impossible to avoid. There is thus an important need for a mitigation system working on an existing runaway beam. MGI was tested with some success in DIII-D previously using high Z impurities. SPI with its faster delivery and high ram pressure migh provide a more efficient impurity delivery for this scheme.
Resource Requirements:	The SPI. Regular tokamak systems. Good beams availability, Argon pellet injector
Diagnostic Requirements:
Analysis Requirements:
Other Requirements:
