A 2-D numerical simulation of the edge plasma inASDEX Upgrade is used to show that above a critical density a bifurcation occurs, leading to strong poloidal in-out asymmetry of the electrontemperature in the divertor. At densities well below and above thecritical one, the asymmetry is less pronounced. Although drift termsare not included in the model, these findings can explain experimentalobservations from Alcator C-Mod and ASDEX Upgrade: (a) the clamping ofthe temperature in the inner divertor after the bifurcation and (b) the large temperature asymmetry immediately above the criticaldensity. The position of the colder divertor leg is determined by asmall asymmetry which is amplified by the bifurcation. In thesimulation the basic asymmetry is due to different lengths of the fluxtubes in the plasma edge. In the experiment the asymmetry effect ofdifferent field line lengths is combined with the action of E × B drifts. Comparison of X point top and bottom measurements thenproduces evidence that the E × B drift effects are dominant. Theeffect of the difference in field line length is still present in theexperiment but E × B produces a stronger effect.

ASDEX Upgradeにおける周辺プラズマの2-D数値シミュレーションを用いて、臨界密度を超えると分岐が発生し、ダイバータ内の電子温度の強いポロイダル方向の内外非対称性が生じることを示す。臨界密度を十分に上回る密度および下回る密度では、非対称性はそれほど顕著ではない。モデルにはドリフト項は含まれていないが、これらの結果はAlcator C-ModおよびASDEX Upgradeからの実験的観測を説明できる:(a) 分岐後の内側ダイバータにおける温度のクランピング、および(b) 臨界密度直上での大きな温度非対称性。より低温のダイバータ脚の位置は、分岐によって増幅される小さな非対称性によって決定される。シミュレーションでは、基本となる非対称性は周辺プラズマにおける磁力線管の長さの違いによるものである。実験では、異なる磁力線長の非対称性効果がE×Bドリフトの作用と組み合わされる。X点の上部と下部の測定の比較は、E×Bドリフト効果が支配的であるという証拠を提供する。磁力線長の差の効果は実験において依然として存在するが、E×Bはより強い効果を生み出す。
