Abstract
Results of the first disruption simulation experiment under plasma str eam power density of 30-40 MW/cm(2) are presented. POGO and RGT graphi te were exposed to perpendicular and inclined incidence of hydrogen pl asma stream with energy density up to 1.4 M/cm(2), directed ion energy of 2-3 keV in the presence of magnetic field up to 3.3 T. Optical int erferometry and soft X-ray spectroscopy were employed for analysis of target plasma. Contrary to well studied perpendicular plasma impact th e inclined plasma incidence results in a drift of target plasma along the sample surface. This restricts the plasma shield effect and increa ses the erosion rate.
