A data-driven approach to model-reference control with applications to particle accelerator power converters

Alireza Karimi, Achille Nicoletti, Michele Martino

A new model-reference data-driven approach is presented which uses the frequency response data of a system in order to avoid the problem of unmodeled dynamics associated with low-order parametric models. It is shown that a convex optimization problem can b ...

Benchmark of gyrokinetic, kinetic MHD and gyrofluid codes for the linear calculation of fast particle driven TAE dynamics

Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Alberto Bottino

Fast particles in fusion plasmas may drive Alfven modes unstable leading to fluctuations of the internal electromagnetic fields and potential loss of particles. Such instabilities can have an impact on the performance and the wall-load of machines with bur ...

Generalised zonal modes in stationary axisymmetric plasmas

Jonathan Graves

The MHD model enables derivation and analysis of the rich structure of geodesic acoustic modes (GAMs) and zonal modes in axisymmetric magnetic confined plasmas. The modes are identifiable from a single dispersion relation as two branches of slow magnetoson ...

Losses of runaway electrons in MHD-active plasmas of the COMPASS tokamak

Cristian Sommariva, Joan Decker, Gergely Papp

The significant role of magnetic perturbations in mitigation and losses of runaway electrons (REs) was documented in dedicated experimental studies of RE at the COMPASS tokamak. REs in COMPASS are produced both in low density quiescent discharges and in di ...

Overview of the RFX-mod fusion science activity

Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Federico Alberto Alfredo Felici, Yi Zhang, Nicola Vianello, Matteo Vallar, Leonardo Pigatto, Elena Gaio, Alberto Ferro

This paper reports the main recent results of the RFX-mod fusion science activity. The RFX-mod device is characterized by a unique flexibility in terms of accessible magnetic configurations. Axisymmetric and helically shaped reversed-field pinch equilibria ...

A novel approach to ion-ion Langevin self-collisions in particle-in-cell modules applied to hybrid MHD codes

Jonathan Graves

In order to have a better closure for magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations, a common approach is to obtain the ion fluid pressure tensor by directly computing the moments of an ion distribution function, obtained by a Particle-in-cell (PIC) solver of the V ...

Poloidal CX visible light plasma rotation diagnostics in TCV

Claudio Marini

Controlled thermonuclear fusion is the main goal of plasma physics. At the Swiss Plasma Center, the Tokamak `a Configuration Variable (TCV) constitutes the main experiment on fusion research, where high temperature plasmas are confined by means of magneti ...

Self-consistent interaction of fast particles and ICRF waves in 3D applications of fusion plasma devices

Jonathan Marc Philippe Faustin

Tokamaks and stellarators are the most promising reactor concepts using the magnetic confinement to contain the plasma fuel. Reactors capable of sustaining deuterium-tritium (D-T) fusion reactions requires the confinement of a very high temperature plasma ...

Magnetohydrodynamic theory of the global structure and magnetic components of geodesic acoustic modes in tokamaks

Jonathan Graves

Ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) theory is used to investigate some of the fundamental properties of the geodesic acoustic continuum modes (GAMs) in tokamaks, including their global structure, their associated magnetic components both inside and outside the ...
