Abstract
Carbon migration has been investigated both
experimentally and numerically by injecting isotopically
marked methane (13CH4) at trace levels into a series of
identical low-density, low-confinement mode discharges at
the last day of the 2007 ASDEX Upgrade experimental
campaign. The experiment is simulated with the DIVIMP
code to test which assumptions are needed to reproduce
the observed deposition pattern. Including a realistic
poloidal flow profile was observed to be crucial in
replicating the experimental results.
