2D analysis of tokamak divertor-plasma detachment-bifurcation with operational parameters and geometries

UEDGE simulations with density scans for various input power, transport coefficients and outer poloidal leg length are performed to study the conditions for the existence of a bifurcation-like drop of Te at the outer strike point, commonly referred to as a detachment cliff, when transitioning to a d...
