3rd IAEA Technical Meeting on the Collisional-Radiative Properties of Tungsten and Hydrogen in Edge Plasmas of Fusion Devices

Please note IAEA and ITER Organization do not share meeting participant information with third parties for accommodation booking or for any other purposes. If participants ever get any email messages that make it seem like their information is being shared, they should not reply that email or click any of the link presented on that email contact the IAEA and ITER Organization meeting organizers and report the issue. Objectives of the meeting knowledge-sharing and networking between fusion researchers and plasma scientists discussion and review of emerging research areas in fusion specifically related to atomic and molecular plasma processes and plasma-wall interactions incorporating tungsten and hydrogen instruction of early-stage career researchers in experimental and theoretical tools used in research of plasma-particles processes taking place in the edge plasma regions Audience Research scientists related nuclear fusion, at any stage of their career, who are involved in the quantitative and qualitative study, analysis, modelling, simulation or prediction of collisional-radiative properties or plasma-wall interactions of tungsten and hydrogen in fusion devices, using or producing fundamental data on these processes. Experimental and theoretical approaches are welcomed. Topics Missing tungsten and hydrogen data in magnetically-confined edge plasma models Rates for ionization, recombination and excitation Multi-step ionization and excitation Non-resonant charge exchange Recommended tungsten and hydrogen data for edge plasma modelling Addressing the large scatter in the various sets for W atomic data (in particular excitation rates) Hydrogen molecular data: vibrationally-, rotationally- and isotopically-resolved data; mixed molecules; limited data available for T 2 , TH and TD Metastable states of W Uncertainties of W and hydrogen data The inclusion of reduced photon opacity information in collisional-radiative models Revised CRM with (semi)opaque lines Full non-linear model or a reduced CRM Isotope effects of collisional broadening in high plasma density Wall reflection models for photons: on W and Be or deposited layers; surface roughness effects Data needs for ITER: CR and plasma-wall interactions with W and hydrogen Accuracy improvement for ionization, recombination, radiation and CX rates of W CR: to obtain reliable charge distribution of W for modelling W upstream migration and penetration to core plasma Spectral lines of interest W 0 to at least W 64+ Dielectronic recombination rates and photon opacity for W vapour shielding during fast transients.
