Elimination of inter-discharge helium glow discharge cleaning with lithium evaporation in NSTX
Operation in the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX) typically used either periodic boronization and inter-shot helium glow discharge cleaning (HeGDC), or inter-shot lithium evaporation without boronization, and initially with inter-shot HeGDC. To assess the viability of operation without HeG...
