An active plasma profile control approach for ITER, which is potentially robust by being tolerant to changing and uncertain physics, has been explored in this work, using a technique based on real-time estimation of linearized profile response models. The ...

Practical solutions for reliable triple probe measurements in magnetized plasmas

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Philippe Marmillod

The triple probe method to obtain local, time-resolved measurements of density, electron temperature and plasma potential is investigated in detail. The difficulties in obtaining reliable measurements with this technique are discussed and overcome. These i ...

AC analysis of defect cross sections using non-radiative MPA quantum model

Alexandre Schmid, Yusuf Leblebici, Davide Garetto

A multiphonon-assisted model included in a Poisson-Schroedinger solver has been applied for the calculation of the capture/emission trapping rates of Si/SiO2 interface defects and their dependence with respect to the trap energy and depth in the oxide. The ...

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 ...

Physics Insight from Plasma Shaping of TCV Tokamak Plasmas - focus on Electron Heat Transport

Antoine Pochelon

In the search of a fusion reactor using magnetic confinement of toroidal plasmas, many important plasma performance parameters directly depend on the shape of the plasma cross-section. The unique shaping capability of the TCV tokamak ("Tokamak à Configurat ...

Full tokamak discharge simulation and kinetic plasma profile control for ITER

Sun Hee Kim

Understanding non-linearly coupled physics between plasma transport and free-boundary equilibrium evolution is essential to operating future tokamak devices, such as ITER and DEMO, in the advanced tokamak operation regimes. To study the non-linearly couple ...

Pseudosurface acoustic waves in hypersonic surface phononic crystals

We present a theoretical framework allowing to properly address the nature of surfacelike eigenmodes in a hypersonic surface phononic crystal, a composite structure made of periodic metal stripes of nanometer size and periodicity of 1 mu m, deposited over ...

The impact of plasma shaping on electron heat transport is investigated in TCV L-mode plasmas. The study is motivated by the observation of an increase in the energy confinement time with decreasing plasma triangularity which may not be explained by a chan ...

Dissipative processes in interchange driven scrape-off layer turbulence

Jonathan Graves, Richard Pitts, Jan Horacek

First principles expressions are given for the parameters governing collisional diffusion and parallel losses of mass, momentum and energy in tokamak scrape-off layer (SOL) plasmas. These dissipative, or damping, coefficients are based on neoclassical perp ...
