Abstract

We have performed experiments on detached hydrogen plasmas associated with molecular activated recombination (MAR) in a linear divertor plasma simulator. Reductions of the ion particle flux and heat load to the target plate were clearly observed in hydrogen plasmas with the hydrogen gas puff. Detailed analysis of Balmer series spectra with the Collisional-Radiative Atomic-Molecular data (CRAMD) code shows that MAR mainly appears as a weak dependence of the Balmer series emission intensities on experimental conditions in detached hydrogen plasmas. The plasma conditions necessary to obtain plasma detachment through MAR or EIR (electron ion recombination including the radiative and three-body recombination) in tokamak divertors are also discussed.
