Plasma pressure and particle loss studies in the Pilot-PSI high flux linear plasma generator

Plasma detachment in tokamak divertors reduces the particle and power fluxes to the plasma facing components and is essential for successful operation of ITER. The linear plasma generator Pilot-PSI can produce a high density (∼1021 m−3), low temperature (∼1eV) plasma which is similar to that expecte...
