Realistic multi-machine tokamak profile simulations and numerical ramp-down optimization using the RAPTOR code

Anna Teplukhina

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 ...

Exploration of candidate fusion reactor regimes by real time control of tokamak plasma shape

Himank Anand

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 ...

Outer midplane scrape-off layer profiles and turbulence in simulations of Alcator C-Mod inner-wall limited discharges

Federico David Halpern

A region of steep plasma gradients, the so-called "narrow-feature," has been found in the near scrape-off layer (SOL) of inner-wall limited (IWL) discharges. Dedicated IWL discharges were carried out in Alcator C-Mod [Marmar et al., Nucl. Fusion 55, 104020 ...

Conceptual design and proof-of-principle testing of the real-time multispectral imaging system MANTIS

Basil Duval, Yanis Andrebe, Wouter Vijvers

The Multispectral Advanced Narrowband Tokamak Imaging System (MANTIS) is proposed to resolve the steep temperature and density gradients in the scrape-off layer of tokamaks in real-time. The initial design is to deliver two-dimensional distributions of key ...

Real-time control of ELM and sawtooth frequencies: similarities and differences

Jonathan Graves

ELMs and Sawteeth, located in different parts of the plasma, are similar from a control engineering point of view. Both manifest themselves through quiescent periods interrupted by periodic collapses. For both, large collapses, following long quiescent per ...

Experimental turbulence studies for gyro-kinetic code validation using advanced microwave diagnostics

Ambrogio Fasoli, Stefano Coda, Laurie Porte, Zhouji Huang

For a comprehensive comparison with theoretical models and advanced numerical turbulence simulations, a large spectrum of fluctuation parameters was measured on the devices ASDEX Upgrade, TCV, and Tore-Supra. Radial profiles of scale-resolved turbulence le ...

Measurement of tokamak error fields using plasma response and its applicability to ITER

Holger Reimerdes

The nonlinear response of a low-beta tokamak plasma to non-axisymmetric fields offers an alternative to direct measurement of the non-axisymmetric part of the vacuum magnetic fields, often termed ‘error fields’. Possible approaches are discussed for determ ...
