Excitation of Alfven eigenmodes by fusion-born alpha-particles in D-He-3 plasmas on JET

Alfven eigenmode (AE) instabilities driven by alpha-particles have been observed in D-He-3 fusion experiments on the Joint European Torus (JET) with the ITER-like wall. For the efficient generation of fusion alpha-particles from D-He-3 fusion reaction, the ...

Numerical simulations of gas puff imaging using a multi-component model of the neutral-plasma interaction in the tokamak boundary

Paolo Ricci

A three-dimensional simulation of gas puff imaging (GPI) diagnostics is carried out by using a self-consistent multi-component model of the neutral-plasma interaction. The simulation, based on the drift-reduced Braginskii model for the plasma and a kinetic ...

Effect of Local Defects on HTS Fusion Magnets Performance

Local defects in the manufacturing of high temperature superconducting cable-in-conduit conductors are known to be present at different stages of the conductor production. The impact of such defects on the performance of one module of the hybrid option of ...

Heavy impurity transport in the presence of 3D MHD ideal perturbations

Eduardo José Lascas Neto

Heavy impurity accumulation poses a problem for the operation of tokamaks featuring tungsten plasma facing components. Early termination of the plasma due to tungsten accumulation is often observed following long living 3D MHD perturbations. Such scenarios ...

Finite element method–discrete element method bridging coupling for the modeling of gouge

Jean-François Molinari, Guillaume Anciaux, Antonio Joaquin Garcia Suarez, Manon Eugénie Voisin--Leprince

We discuss the multiscale modeling of a granular material trapped between continuum elastic domains. The amorphous granular region, usually termed “gouge,” is under high confinement pressure, to represent the loading of faults at depth. We model the granul ...

Modeling of saturated external MHD instabilities in tokamaks: A comparison of 3D free boundary equilibria and nonlinear stability calculations

Jonathan Graves

3D free boundary equilibrium computations have recently been used to model external kinks and edge harmonic oscillations (EHOs), comparing with linear MHD stability codes, and nonlinear analytic theory [Kleiner et al., Phys. Plasma Controlled Fusion 61, 08 ...

Modelling of sawtooth-induced fast ion transport in positive and negative triangularity in TCV

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Duccio Testa, Alexander Karpushov, Mario Ludovico Podesta, Antoine Pierre Emmanuel Alexis Merle, Marcelo Baquero Ruiz, Dmytry Mykytchuk, Matteo Vallar, Lorenzo Stipani

Internal kinks are a common magneto hydro-dynamic (MHD) instability observed in tokamak operation when the q profile in the plasma core is close to unity. This MHD instability impacts both the transport of the bulk plasma (current, particle and energy tran ...

Impact of the plasma operation on the technical requirements in EU-DEMO

Olivier Sauter, Minh Quang Tran, Emiliano Fable, Simon Van Mulders, Hartmut Zohm

The plasma design point during stationary phase operation of EU-DEMO has been described extensively in the past, and the assumptions employed for its definition have been supported by various investigations. However, a stationary snapshot is by far not suf ...

Gigahertz free-space electro-optic modulators based on Mie resonances

Ileana-Cristina Benea-Chelmus, Sydney Rebecca Mason

Electro-optic modulators are essential for sensing, metrology and telecommunications. Most target fiber applications. Instead, metasurface-based architectures that modulate free-space light at gigahertz (GHz) speeds can boost flat optics technology by micr ...

Diffusion-Bonding Between Strands and Modeling of Splices of Nb3Sn Rutherford Cables

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Nikolay Bykovskiy

Particle accelerators foresee the use of Nb3Sn in the next generation of dipole magnets. A common design strategy is to grade the coil, i.e., to optimize the quantity of superconductor in the turns with respect to the magnetic field intensity. As a consequ ...
