Fast-wave heating and current drive efficiencies can be reduced by a number of processes in the vicinity of the antenna and in the scrape-off layer (SOL). On NSTX from around 25% to more than 60% of the high-harmonic fast-wave power can be lost to the SOL regions, and a large part of this lost power flows along SOL magnetic field lines and is deposited in bright spirals on the divertor floor and ceiling. We show that field-line mapping matches the location of heat deposition on the lower divertor, albeit with a portion of the heat outside of the predictions. The field-line mapping can then be used to partially reconstruct the profile of lost fast-wave power at the midplane in front of the antenna, and the losses peak close to the last closed flux surface as well as the antenna. This profile suggests a radial standing-wave pattern formed by fast-wave propagation in the SOL, and this hypothesis will be tested on NSTX-U. RF codes must reproduce these results so that such codes can be used to understand this edge loss and to minimize RF heat deposition and erosion in the divertor region on ITER.

高速波加熱と電流駆動の効率は、アンテナ近傍およびスクレイプオフ層(SOL)におけるいくつかのプロセスによって低下し得る。NSTXでは、高調波高速波パワーの約25%から60%以上がSOL領域で損失し得る。この損失パワーの大部分はSOLの磁力線に沿って流れ、ダイバータの床面と天井面に明るいスパイラル状のパターンとして堆積する。我々は、磁力線マッピングが下部ダイバータにおける熱堆積の位置と一致することを示す。ただし、予測から外れる熱の一部も存在する。磁力線マッピングは、アンテナ前方の赤道面における損失高速波パワーのプロファイルを部分的に再構成するために使用でき、損失は最終閉鎖磁気面およびアンテナの近傍でピークに達する。このプロファイルは、SOLにおける高速波伝播によって形成される径方向の定在波パターンを示唆しており、この仮説はNSTX-Uで検証される予定である。RFコードはこれらの結果を再現しなければならない。そうすることで、そのようなコードを用いて、このエッジ損失を理解し、ITERのダイバータ領域におけるRF熱堆積と損耗を最小化することが可能となる。
