The Superconducting Fault Current Limiter (SFCL) appears to be a device of great interest to efficiently build the electrical grid of tomorrow. With the recent progress made by the superconducting wires manufacturers, there are needs coming from the indust ...
A full tokamak discharge simulator has been developed by combining a free-boundary equilibrium evolution code, DINA-CH, and an advanced transport modelling code, CRONOS. The combined tokamak discharge simulator provides a full simulation of a whole tokamak ...
The need of durable, economically acceptable and safe energy sources continues to stimulate studies in a field of thermonuclear fusion. The most successful solution for controlled magnetic fusion is the tokamak. The improvement of tokamak performance depen ...
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 ...
Clear evidence is reported for the first time of a rapid localized reduction of core electron energy diffusivity during the formation of an electron internal-transport barrier. The transition occurs rapidly (similar or equal to3 ms), during a slow (similar ...
In magnetic confinement devices, the inhomogeneity of the confining magnetic field along a magnetic field line generates the trapping of particles (with low ratio of parallel to perpendicular velocities) within local magnetic wells. One of the consequences ...
We present non-linear self-consistent global simulations of the SOL plasma dynamics using the Global Braginskii Solver (GBS) code. The code solves on the drift-reduced Braginkii equations, with cold ions. Studied originally for the simulation of the Simple ...
A hybrid magnetohydrodynamic (M H D)-gyro-kinetic model CASTOR-K developed for the study of Alfven eigenmode (AE) stability in the presence of energetic ions has been applied to the interpretation of recent measurements of Alfven waves in JET. These includ ...
The stability of internal, ideal modes in tokamaks with low magnetic shear in the plasma core is analyzed. For equilibria with large aspect ratio, a parabolic pressure profile and a flat q profile in the core, an exact solution of the ideal magnetohydrodyn ...
Recent stability results of external kink modes and vertical modes in compact stellarators are presented. The vertical mode is found to be stabilized by externally generated poloidal flux. A simple stability criterion is derived in the limit of large aspec ...
