Energy is essential for human existence and our future depends on plentiful and accessible sources of energy. The world population is fast growing and the average energy used per capita increases. One of the greatest challenges for human beings is that of ...
Turbulence in the scrape-off-layer (SOL) of magnetic fusion devices is one of the most outstanding issues in magnetic fusion. This open fied lines region determines the boundary condition of the core plasma and controls the plasma refueling, heat losses an ...
Controlled nuclear fusion could provide our society with a clean,
safe, and virtually inexhaustible source of electric power production.
The tokamak has proven to be capable of producing large amounts of
fusion reactions by confining magnetically the ...
Similarly to neutral fluids, plasmas often exhibit turbulent behavior. Turbulence in plasmas is usually more complex than in neutral fluids due to long range interactions via electric and magnetic fields, and kinetic effects. It gives rise to many interest ...
In magnetically confined fusion devices, the energy and particle transport is significantly larger than expected from purely collisional processes. This degraded confinement mostly results from small-scale turbulence and prevents from reaching self-sustain ...
Results are presented from the JET Trace Tritium Experimental (TTE) campaign using minority tritium (T) plasmas (n(T)/n(D) < 3%). Thermal tritium particle transport coefficients (D-T, nu(T)) are found to exceed neo-classical values in all regimes, except i ...
Analysis of magnetic fluctuations is important for understanding the magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) properties of fusion plasmas. These properties affect nearly all aspects of behaviour of magnetic confinement, and thus are of interest in topics ranging from g ...
This overview is an assessment of the gyrokinetic framework and simulations to compute turbulent transport in fusion plasmas. It covers an introduction to the gyrokinetic theory, the principal numerical techniques which are being used to solve the gyrokine ...
A view of recent experimental results and progress in the characterization of the statistical properties of edge turbulence in fusion plasmas is given. The study of the dynamical interplay between fluctuations in gradients, turbulent transport and radial e ...
Understanding particle transport physics is of great importance for magnetically confined plasma devices and for the development of thermonuclear fusion power for energy production. From the beginnings of fusion research, more than half a century ago, the ...
