The SPARC Primary Reference Discharge defined by cfsPOPCON
read the original abstract
The Primary Reference Discharge (PRD) is a design point maximizing the highest-achievable fusion power gain in a full-field (12.2T), full-current (8.7MA) DT-fueled H-mode on SPARC. The Primary Reference Discharge was defined in the SPARC Physics Basis using a precursor to the cfsPOPCON scoping tool. In this memo, we discuss modifications made to the cfsPOPCON scoping tool since the release of the SPARC Physics Basis and show that the key parameters of the PRD design point have not changed significantly.

Empirical impact of near-separatrix plasma and neutral transport on the pedestal in the transition between EDA and ELMy H-modes on Alcator C-Mod
An added resistive-ballooning transport channel lets the Saarelma-Connor model reproduce EDA H-mode pedestal densities on C-Mod up to 3×10^20 m^-3 and lowers predicted SPARC pedestal density by ~20%.
