Abstract

If vibrationally excited molecules are discretised into individual species and proper account is taken of the toroidal geometry in simulating neutrals, some improvement can be made in simulating the anomalous detachment behaviour seen at the outer target of TCV single‐null lower L‐mode discharges. This contribution discusses the inclusion of these options into SOLPS5.0 (B2.5/Eirene) simulations of TCV discharges previously modelled with the SOLPS4.0 package, but demonstrates that current physics contained within the simulations is still by a large margin insufficient to describe the experimental measurements.

The dependence of MAR on the plasma temperature near the divertor target is investigated by using the collisional-radiative model including the transport processes for plasma and neutral species, and the formation of neutral particles on the divertor target.

## Abstract A kinetic modelling of 1d collisional and 2d Vlasov magnetic SOL's using the W1 and W2 particle codes is presented. Deviation of the distribution function from the equilibrium one is shown, as well as the possibility of kinetic instability in diverted plasmas.
