Effect of charge exchange on the marfe effect in a tokamak plasma
Abramov V. A., Lisitsa V. S., Morozov D. Kh.
The charge exchange of impurities with hydrogen atoms raises the threshold for the onset of a poloidal asymmetry in the emission in the edge plasma of a tokamak (i.e., the threshold for the marfe effect). This circumstance explains the stable poloidal symmetry in the detached-plasma regime.
