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 ...

The role of isotope mass and transport for H-mode access in tritium containing plasmas at JET with ITER-like wall

Henri Weisen, Haomin Sun, Javier García Hernández, Marco Wischmeier, Nicola Vianello, Mikhail Maslov

The required heating power, P-LH, to access the high confinement regime (H-mode) in tritium containing plasmas is investigated in JET with ITER-like wall at a toroidal magnetic field of B-t = 1.8 T and a plasma current of I-p = 1.7 MA. PLH, also referred t ...

Absolute/convective secondary instabilities and the role of confinement in free shear layers

François Gallaire, Cristobal Manuel Arratia Martinez, Saviz Mowlavi

We study the linear spatiotemporal stability of an infinite row of equal point vortices under symmetric confinement between parallel walls. These rows of vortices serve to model the secondary instability leading to the merging of consecutive (Kelvin-Helmho ...

Signatures of asymmetry in neutron spectra and images predicted by three-dimensional radiation hydrodynamics simulations of indirect drive implosions

Fabian Manke

We present the results of 3D simulations of indirect drive inertial confinement fusion capsules driven by the "high-foot" radiation pulse on the National Ignition Facility. The results are post-processed using a semi-deterministic ray tracing model to gene ...

Overview of MAST results

Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Mario Ludovico Podesta, Jan Horacek, Ben McMillan, Ricardo Pérez Suárez, Otto Asunta

The Mega Ampere Spherical Tokamak (MAST) programme is strongly focused on addressing key physics issues in preparation for operation of ITER as well as providing solutions for DEMO design choices. In this regard, MAST has provided key results in understand ...

SOLPS modelling of ELMing H-mode

Barbora Bruant Gulejová

Numerical simulation of the tokamak scrape-off layer (SOL) is an essential tool for the prediction of the conditions to be expected in future fusion reactors such as the ITER project, now under construction in Southern France. One particularly important is ...

Observation of Spontaneous Toroidal Rotation Inversion in Ohmically Heated Tokamak Plasmas

Basil Duval, Antoine Pochelon, Andrea Scarabosio, Alessandro Bortolon

Bulk plasma toroidal rotation is observed to invert spontaneously from counter to cocurrent direction in TCV (Tokamak à Configuration Variable) Ohmically heated discharges, in low confinement mode, without momentum input. The inversion occurs in high curre ...

Studies of the 'Quiescent H-mode' regime in ASDEX Upgrade and JET

Richard Pitts

The stationary edge localized mode (ELM)-free 'Quiescent H-mode' (QH-mode) regime, obtained with counter neutral beam injection, is studied in ASDEX Upgrade and Joint European Torus. QH-mode plasmas have high pedestal and core ion temperatures together wit ...

Integrated exhaust scenarios with actively controlled ELMs

Yves Martin, Jonathan Bryan Lister, René Uwe Schneider, Hartmut Zohm

An integrated radiative high performance scenario has been established at ASDEX Upgrade based on simultaneous feedback control of the average divertor neutral particle and power flux in combination with a high, pellet induced frequency of edge localized mo ...
