The competing effects of wave amplitude and collisions on multi-ion species suppression of stimulated Brillouin scattering in inertial confinement fusion Hohlraums

Reduction in stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) from National Ignition Facility Hohlraums has been predicted through the use of multi-ion species materials on Hohlraum walls. This approach to controlling SBS is based upon introducing a lighter ion speci ...

Predictive modeling of Alfvén eigenmode stability in inductive scenarios in JT-60SA

Javier García Hernández, Antonio José Pereira de Figueiredo, Matteo Vallar

The JT-60SA device offers unique conditions before ITER for the study of the interaction of energetic particles with plasma waves. With similar dimensions to JET, e.g., a major radius but with a slightly more elongated plasma volume, JT-60SA is used as a h ...

A self-consistent multi-component model of plasma turbulence and kinetic neutral dynamics for the simulation of the tokamak boundary

Paolo Ricci

A self-consistent model is presented for the simulation of a multi-component plasma in the tokamak boundary. A deuterium plasma is considered, with the plasma species that include electrons, deuterium atomic ions and deuterium molecular ions, while the deu ...

Linear theory of electron-plasma waves at arbitrary collisionality

Paolo Ricci, Stephan Brunner, Rogério Manuel Cabete De Jesus Jorge, Vyacheslav Konovets, Sonia Gamba

The dynamics of electron-plasma waves is described at arbitrary collisionality by considering the full Coulomb collision operator. The description is based on a Hermite–Laguerre decomposition of the velocity dependence of the electron distribution function ...

Projective multiscale time-integration for electrostatic particle-in-cell methods

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Paul Isaac Denis Louis Marie Cazeaux

The simulation of problems in kinetic plasma physics is often challenging due to strongly coupled phenomena across multiple scales. In this work, we propose a wavelet-based coarse-grained numerical scheme, based on the framework of Equation-Free Projective ...

An efficient treatment of the full Coulomb collision operator with applications

Paolo Ricci, Rogério Manuel Cabete De Jesus Jorge, Baptiste Jimmy Frei

A formulation of full Coulomb (or Landau) collision operator is provided that allows for an efficient numerical implementation, both in unmagnetized and magnetized plasmas. The method is based on projecting the Boltzmann equations and the collision operato ...

A moment-based model for plasma dynamics at arbitrary collisionality

Rogério Manuel Cabete De Jesus Jorge

Despite significant development over the last decades, a model able to describe the periphery region of magnetic confinement fusion devices, extending from the edge to the far scrape-off layer, is still missing. This is because this region is characterized ...

Effects of collisionality and T e /T i on fluctuations in positive and negative δ tokamak plasmas

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Stefano Coda, Stephan Brunner, Laurie Porte, Gabriele Merlo, Matteo Fontana, Ajay Chandrarajan Jayalekshmi

The effects of negative triangularity () on confinement and fluctuations in plasmas covering a large range of parameters were investigated on the tokamak à configuration variable (TCV). The conditions explored in this paper include discharges where neutral ...

Collisional damping rates for electron plasma waves reassessed

Stephan Brunner, Trach-Minh Tran

Collisional damping of electron plasma waves, the primary damping for high phase velocity waves, is proportional to the electron-ion collision rate, nu(ei,th). Here, it is shown that the damping rate normalized to nu(ei,th) depends on the charge state, Z, ...

Longitudinal and Transverse Instability of Ion Acoustic Waves

Stephan Brunner

Ion acoustic waves are found to be susceptible to at least two distinct decay processes. Which process dominates depends on the parameters. In the cases examined, the decay channel where daughter modes propagate parallel to the mother mode is found to domi ...
