Role of molecular effects in divertor plasma recombination
Molecule-Activated Recombination (MAR) effect is re-considered in view of divertor plasma conditions. A strong isotopic effect is demonstrated. In deuterium plasmas, the reaction chain through D2+ formation, usually considered dominant and included in 2D edge plasma models, is negligible. However, i...
