Title	259: Helium Campaign (D beams)
Name:	Brian Grierson grierson@fusion.gat.com	Affiliation:	General Atomics
Research Area:	General Physics	Presentation time:	Not requested
Co-Author(s):		ITPA Joint Experiment :	No
Description:	Take the time to make dominantly helium plasmas for testing RMP ELM suppression, scenarios, L-H and rotation physics for ITER non-nuclear phase.	ITER IO Urgent Research Task :	No
Experimental Approach/Plan:	Make helium plasmas and give each area at least one day to perform experiments designed to test current theories, techniques, scenarios, etc... in helium plasmas.
Background:	ITER will have a non-nuclear phase of operation, and we need an understanding of L-H transition, ELM suppression and disruption mitigation.
Resource Requirements:	Multiple days and multiple area leaders coordinating experiments.
Diagnostic Requirements:	All. Particularly CER preparation for making robust helium measurements.
Analysis Requirements:	Most tools should work.
Other Requirements:
