Impact of RMP magnetic field simulation models on fast ion losses

Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper, David Pfefferlé, Cyril Misev

Two opposing approaches to include resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) in fast ion simulations are compared, one where the vacuum field caused by the RMP current coils is added to the axisymmetric MHD equilibrium, the other where the MHD equilibrium inc ...

Equilibrium and stability with m=0 magnetic islands

Laurent Villard, Andrei Martynov

Axially symmetric m = 0 magnetic islands are studied in a cylindrical plasma with longitudinal magnetic field reversal. Applying 2D deformation on the equilibrium plasma boundary results in the breaking of magnetic surfaces topology into chain of islands. ...

Ideal MHD stability of helically symmetric magnetic islands

Laurent Villard, Andrei Martynov

A new version of the MHD_NX code, that computes the ideal MHD stability of helically symmetric equilibria with arbitrary topology of magnetic surfaces, was applied to the investigation of equilibrium magnetic islands in tokamak-like conditions. Any helical ...

MHD equilibrium and stability of tokamaks and RFP systems with 3D helical cores

Olivier Sauter, Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper

Bifurcated magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equilibrium states are computed for ITER hybrid scenario and RFX-mod SHAx configurations with very flat or reversed core magnetic shear conditions. In the ITER studies, the minimum inverse rotational transform qmin is n ...

Measurement and modeling of three-dimensional equilibria in DIII-D

Holger Reimerdes

A detailed experiment-theory comparison reveals that linear ideal MHD theory is in quantitative agreement with external magnetic and internal soft x-ray measurements of the plasma response to externally applied non-axisymmetric fields over a broad range of ...

Pedestal Characteristics and MHD Stability of H-Mode Plasmas in TCV

Andreas Pitzschke

The tokamak à configuration variable (TCV) is unique in its ability to create a variety of plasma shapes and to heat the electron population in high density regimes using microwave power at the third harmonic of the electron cyclotron frequency. In the fra ...

MHD Stability Analysis of IDB Plasma in LHD

Wilfred Anthony Cooper

The characteristics of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) stability of plasmas with the internal diffusion barrier (IDB) are intensively studied in the Large Helical Device (LHD) experiment. These plasma are produced by the rapid fueling into the core region with ...

Plasma rotation and momentum transport studies in the TCV tokamak based on charge exchange spectroscopy measurements

Alessandro Bortolon

Thermonuclear controlled fusion research is a highly active branch of plasma physics. The main goal is the production of energy from the fusion reaction of hydrogen isotope nuclei, the same reaction that powers stars. The most promising present approach ar ...

Temperature oscillating regimes in Tore Supra diagnosed by MHD activity

This paper describes what we can learn on the regimes of spontaneous electron temperature oscillations discovered in Tore Supra from the analysis of MHD activity. Since the first observations of this oscillating behaviour of plasma equilibrium, and its int ...

Stability and toroidal rotation properties of highly shaped plasmas in the TCV tokamak

Andrea Scarabosio

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities and plasma rotation have various impacts on particle and thermal transport in toroidal plasmas. MHD instabilities degrade the confinement, limit the maximum achievable plasma pressure, and can lead to plasma disrupti ...
