Since always knowledge at the Alcator experiment has been orally hand down from generation to generation. Though this process has indeed worked for many years I strongly believe it can be improved by means of a written reference everyone can read and modify.

C-Mod’s primary heating is through RF as opposed to neutral beams meaning that no strong momentum sources are introduced. Typically hydrogen minority ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) is used. C-Mod’s reactor relevant density leads to high collisionality which strongly couples ions and electrons such that Ti = Te, as expected in a reactor. C-Mod also uses high-Z, molybdenum walls opposed to most machines which use graphite or other low-Z materials. | ||

Welcome to the Alcator CMOD wiki!
Since always knowledge at the Alcator experiment has been orally hand down from generation to generation. Though this process has indeed worked for many years I strongly believe it can be improved by means of a written reference everyone can read and modify. Enjoy!
Alcator C-Mod is the only high field, high density, diverted tokamak in the world and is in many areas the highest performance tokamak in the United States. C-Mod’s primary heating is through RF as opposed to neutral beams meaning that no strong momentum sources are introduced. Typically hydrogen minority ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) is used. C-Mod’s reactor relevant density leads to high collisionality which strongly couples ions and electrons such that Ti = Te, as expected in a reactor. C-Mod also uses high-Z, molybdenum walls opposed to most machines which use graphite or other low-Z materials.
