The effect of plasma shaping on scrape-off layer (SOL) plasma turbulence is investigated through a rigorous validation exercise. Two- and three-dimensional simulations of the SOL plasma dynamics in three TCV limited discharges are carried out with the GBS ...

Collisional gyrokinetic full-f particle-in-cell simulations on open field lines with PICLS

Stephan Brunner, Alberto Bottino

Applying gyrokinetic simulations in theoretical turbulence and transport studies for the plasma edge and scrape-off layer (SOL) presents significant challenges. To particularly account for steep density and temperature gradients in the SOL, the "full-f" co ...

Abandoning the assumption of nested magnetic surfaces in tokamak plasma expands the field of research and opens up new approaches for both theoretical and experimental plasma physics. The computer code KINX for calculations of the ideal MHD stability was d ...

While in recent years gyrokinetic simulations have become the workhorse for theoretical turbulence and transport studies in the plasma core, their application to the edge and scrape-off layer (SOL) region presents significant challenges. In particular, ste ...

Predictive modelling of plasma profiles is an essential part of ongoing research in tokamak plasmas, required for a successful realization of future fusion reactors. This thesis focuses on upgrading the RAPTOR code to extend the area of its applicability f ...

EPFL2018

The potential of nuclear fusion to provide a practically inexhaustible source of energy has motivated scientists to work towards developing nuclear fusion tokamak power plants. Stable operation of a tokamak at high performance requires simultaneous treatme ...

Stability of Tokamak and RFP Plasmas with an Extended Region of Low Magnetic Shear

Daniele Brunetti

It has been observed experimentally that magnetically confined plasmas, characterised by the safety factor q with a small or slightly inverted magnetic shear, have good confinement properties. Such plasmas typically have no internal transport barrier, oper ...

Novel free boundary magnetohydrodynamic equilibrium states with spontaneous three-dimensional (3-D) deformations of the plasmaâvacuum interface are computed. The structures obtained look like saturated ideal external kink/peeling modes. Large edge pre ...

Cambridge University Press2015

First time experimental evidence is presented for a direct link between the decay of a n = 3 plasma response and the formation of a three-dimensional (3D) plasma boundary. We inspect a lower single-null L-mode plasma which first reacts at sufficiently high ...

Extension of operation regimes and investigation of three-dimensional currentless plasmas in the Large Helical Device

Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Terunobu Akiyama, Kenji Tanaka

The progress of physical understanding as well as parameter improvement of net-current-free helical plasma is reported for the Large Helical Device since the last Fusion Energy Conference in Daejeon in 2010. The second low-energy neutral beam line was inst ...
