Self-consistent simulation of multi-component plasma turbulence and neutral dynamics in the tokamak boundary

André Calado Coroado

The interaction between neutral particles and the plasma plays a key role in determining the dynamics of the tokamak boundary that, in turn, significantly impact the overall performance of the device. Leveraging the work in Wersal and Ricci [Nucl. Fusion 5 ...

Neural network surrogate of QuaLiKiz using JET experimental data to populate training space

Henri Weisen, Yann Camenen

Within integrated tokamak plasma modeling, turbulent transport codes are typically the computational bottleneck limiting their routine use outside of post-discharge analysis. Neural network (NN) surrogates have been used to accelerate these calculations wh ...

Controlling the rotation of drift tearing modes by biased electrode in ADITYA-U tokamak

Harshita Raj, Ankit Kumar, Abhijit Sen, Rohit Kumar, Sameer Kumar

The influence of background plasma poloidal rotation on the rotation frequency of the m/n = 2/1 drift tearing mode (DTM) has been studied in ADITYA-U tokamak. The poloidal rotation velocity of the background plasma in the ion diamagnetic direction is incre ...

ICRF modelling in 2D and 3D magnetic configurations using a hot plasma model

Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Jonathan Graves, Mike Machielsen

The generation of energetic trapped ions is important for experiments investigating their confinement in 3D magnetic fields, for plasma heating, for studies into unwanted drive of instabilities, and improved transport regimes. An effective way to generate ...

Power exhaust by core radiation at COMPASS tokamak

Olivier Claude Martin Février, Davide Mancini

Substantial power dissipation in the edge plasma is required for the safe operation of ITER and next-step fusion reactors, otherwise unmitigated heat fluxes at the divertor plasma-facing components (PFCs) would easily exceed their material limits. Traditio ...

Evolution and ion kinetics of a XUV-induced nanoplasma in ammonia clusters

Marcel Drabbels, Andrew Daniel Bonnar Clark, Verónica Oliver Álvarez de Lara

High-intensity extreme ultraviolet (XUV) pulses from a free-electron laser can be used to create a nanoplasma in clusters. In reference Michiels et al (2020 Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 22 7828-34) we investigated the formation of excited states in an XUV-induc ...

Implementation of energy transfer technique in ORB5 to study collisionless wave-particle interactions in phase-space

Laurent Villard, Alberto Bottino, Emmanuel Lanti, Noé Thomas Elie Ohana, Emanuele Poli

A new diagnostic has been developed to investigate the wave-particle interaction in the phase-space in gyrokinetic particle-in-cell codes. Keeping information about energy transfer terms in the velocity space, the technique has been implemented and tested ...

Development of free-boundary equilibrium and transport solvers for simulation and real-time interpretation of tokamak experiments

Francesco Carpanese

To exploit fusion as a source of energy, a hot and dense confined plasma is needed. This is achieved in tokamaks by actively controlling the plasma state meaning shape, position and internal kinetic profiles. This thesis addresses two topics: the developme ...

Advances in the physics studies for the JT-60SA tokamak exploitation and research plan

Stefano Coda, Javier García Hernández, Aylwin Iantchenko, Marco Wischmeier, Matteo Vallar, Kenji Tanaka, Samuele Mazzi, Leonardo Pigatto

JT-60SA, the largest tokamak that will operate before ITER, has been designed and built jointly by Japan and Europe, and is due to start operation in 2020. Its main missions are to support ITER exploitation and to contribute to the demonstration fusion rea ...

Modeling of TAE mode excitation with an antenna in realistic X-point geometry

Ambrogio Fasoli, Duccio Testa

Experimentally, it is observed that Toroidal Alfven Eigenmodes (TAEs) are difficult to excite with an external antenna when the plasma is in X-point geometry. Here, the effect of the X-point geometry on the efficiency of the TAE excitation with the externa ...
