Sawtooth control with modulated ICRH in JET-ILW H-mode plasmas

Sawtooth pacing with modulated ion-cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) has been demonstrated to be very efficient in JET-ILW L-mode plasmas (Lerche et al 2017 Nucl. Fusion 57 036027, Lennholm et al 2017 Fusion Eng. Des. 123 535-40), where the main heat sour ...

Voyager 2 plasma observations of the heliopause and interstellar medium

Paula Garcia Galindo

The solar wind blows outwards from the Sun and forms a bubble of solar material in the interstellar medium. The heliopause (HP) is the boundary that divides the hot tenuous solar wind plasma in the heliosheath from the colder, denser very local interstella ...

Characterizing time intermittency in non-diffusive fast ion transport through plasma turbulence

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Marcelo Baquero Ruiz, Oulfa Chellaï, Fabian Manke

Turbulent fast ion transport has been investigated in astrophisycal, laboratory and fusion plasmas. When gyro- and drift-averaging across plasma structures manifest as non-markovian and non-local effects, this results in generally non-diffusive transport. ...

A wall-aligned grid generator for non-linear simulations of MHD instabilities in tokamak plasmas

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Jonathan Graves, Yves Martin, Duccio Testa, Patrick Blanchard, Alessandro Pau, Cristian Sommariva, Henri Weisen, Richard Pitts, Yann Camenen, Jan Horacek, Javier García Hernández, Marco Wischmeier, Nicola Vianello, Mikhail Maslov, Federico Nespoli, Yao Zhou, David Pfefferlé, Davide Galassi, Antonio José Pereira de Figueiredo, Jonathan Marc Philippe Faustin, Liang Yao, Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Hamish William Patten, Samuel Lanthaler, Bernhard Sieglin, Otto Asunta

Block-structured mesh generation techniques have been well addressed in the CFD community for automobile and aerospace studies, and their applicability to magnetic fusion is highly relevant, due to the complexity of the plasma-facing wall structures inside ...

Molecular clouds in the Cosmic Snake normal star-forming galaxy 8 billion years ago

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Daniel Pfenniger, Johan Richard

The cold molecular gas in contemporary galaxies is structured in discrete cloud complexes. These giant molecular clouds (GMCs), with 10(4)-10(7) solar masses (M-circle dot) and radii of 5-100 parsecs, are the seeds of star formation(1). Highlighting the mo ...

Heavy impurity transport in tokamaks with plasma flows and saturated 3D perturbations

Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Cristian Sommariva, Samuel Lanthaler, Madhusudan Raghunathan, Eduardo José Lascas Neto

Observations in JET hybrid scenarios show that early termination of the plasma can be caused by tungsten accumulation events, sometimes preceded by large living MHD perturbations [1]. Only recent investigations have been made into understanding the effects ...

Atomic scale electronic structure and response in attosecond photoemission delays: A case study using non-centrosymmetric BiTeCI

Jan Hugo Dil

Attosecond time-resolved photoemission from the differently terminated BiTeCl surfaces yield a photoelectron streaking that cannot be explained by bulk propagation effects alone. Instead, the atomic scale electronic structure and dynamical screening for bo ...

Two-fluid solutions for Langmuir probes in collisionless and isothermal plasma, over all space and bias potential

Ivo Furno, Alan Howling, Philippe Frédérique Bruno Guittienne

This paper presents solutions for the classical one-dimensional (1D radial and Cartesian) problem of Langmuir probes in a collisionless, isothermal plasma. The method is based on two-fluid equations derived from the first two moments of Vlasov's equation. ...

An arbitrary wavelength solver for global gyrokinetic simulations. Application to the study of fine radial structures on microturbulence due to non-adiabatic passing electron dynamics

Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Trach-Minh Tran, Ben McMillan, Gabriele Merlo, Julien Stanislas Pierre Dominski

The influence of the fine layers of the non-adiabatic passing electron response on electrostatic turbulent transport, previously studied systematically in flux tube geometry [Dominski et al., Phys. Plasmas 22, 062303 (2015)], is pursued in global geometry ...
