An examination of the effects of neutral particles on the edge plasma in tokamaks

A detailed analysis of neutral atom recycling and pedestal fueling in a DIII-D [J. Luxon, Nucl. Fusion, 42, 614, 2002] high-confinement mode discharge is presented. Experimental data and 2D edge plasma fluid code calculations are employed to provide ion wall recycling and recombination neutral sourc...
