✦ Synopsis

An electron kinetic code is used to simulate lonqitudinal transport and recycling near the neutralizer plate in a divertor plasma. In addition to the standard features, such as e-β€’ and e-i Coulomb collisions, transport, ion motion, and a self-consistent eleCtric field, the code now accounts for ionization, excitation, and recycling of hydroqen near the plate.

The kinetic results are compared with those of a one-dimensional, two-tewerature fluid code. Sow irmlications of these results for recycling and impurity control in tokamaks are also discussed.

Ions and neutrals are treated as fluids.

The neutrals in a tokamak divertor in the so-called "detached" mode of operation may be in a kinetic regime (long mean free path) in some regions and in a fluid regime (short mean free path) elsewhere. For example, a kinetic description is necessary in the thin ionization front, while the cold neutr

## Abstract The coupled dynamics and kinetics between gas and plasma in the sheath region in the divertor is studied by means of a one‐dimensional Particle in Cell‐Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (PIC‐DSMC) model. In particular, the electron‐induced vibrational excitation/relaxation of H2 molecules a
