Executive Summary

This preprint presents the operational regime and experimental performance of the Magnum-PSI linear plasma generator upgraded with a superconducting magnet. The facility achieves steady-state ITER-relevant plasma divertor conditions with particle fluxes exceeding 10^25 m^-2 s^-1, heat fluxes up to 50 MW m^-2, and particle fluences reaching 10^30 m^-2. Machine performance is characterized and parameterized using both linear regression and artificial neural networks, demonstrating its capability for long-term plasma-facing material testing and Edge Localized Mode (ELM) simulation.
