This review is devoted to tokamak plasmas with a cross sectional shape featuring negative
triangularity, which appear to hold great promise as a candidate reactor configuration owing …

The high poloidal-beta (β P) regime was first proposed as a high bootstrap current scenario
for a steady-state fusion pilot plant (FPP) in the 1990s (Kikuchi in Nucl Fusion 30: 265 …

In a series of high performance diverted discharges on DIII-D, we demonstrate that strong
negative triangularity (NT) sha** robustly suppresses all edge-localized mode (ELM) …

Diverted discharges at negative triangularity on the DIII-D tokamak sustain normalized
confinement and pressure levels typical of standard H-mode scenarios (H 98y2≃ 1, β N≃ 3) …

Negative triangularity (NT) is a potentially transformative configuration for tokamak-based
fusion energy with its high-performance core, edge localized mode (ELM)-free edge, and …

The favorable confinement properties of negative-triangularity (NT) tokamak configurations
were discovered in the TCV tokamak in the late 1990s and were documented over the two …

Infinite toroidal mode number (n=∞) ballooning mode analysis of negative triangularity
discharges on DIII–D shows that the access to 2 nd stability becomes strongly restricted …

Plasmas with negative triangularity (NT) shape have been recently shown to be able to
achieve H-mode levels of confinement in L-mode, avoiding detrimental edge localised …

Strongly-shaped diverted negative triangularity (NT) plasmas in the DIII-D tokamak
demonstrate simultaneous access to high normalized density, current, pressure, and …

In this work, we study the impact of aspect ratio A= R0/r (the ratio of major radius R0 to minor
radius r) on the confinement benefits of Negative Triangularity (NT) plasma sha**. We use …
