Abstract

Argon, krypton and xenon were puffed with and without simultaneous hydrogen gas puffing into Ohmically heated plasmas of the JT-60U tokamak with low plasma currents in order to study the capability of disruption mitigation. It was found that krypton gas puffing can provide a plasma termination with smaller amounts of runaway electrons in comparison to argon and xenon gas puffing.
