Abstract

The island divertor in the W7-AS stellarator enables access to a new NBI-heated, high density operating regime with promising confinement properties. This regime — the High Density H-Mode — displays no evident mode activity, is extant above a threshold density and characterized by flat density profiles, high energy- and low impurity-confinement times and edge localized radiation. Impurity accumulation, normally associated with ELM-free H-modes, is avoided. Quasi steady-state discharges with ñ_e up to 4 10²⁰ m^–3, edge radiation levels up to 90%, and partial plasma detachment at the divertor targets can be simultaneously realized.
