Representation and modeling of charged particle distributions in tokamaks

Andreas Bierwage, Michael Fitzgerald, Philipp Lauber +3

Experimental diagnostics, analysis tools and simulations represent particle distributions in various forms and coordinates. Algorithms to manage these data are needed on platforms…

A quasi-continuous exhaust scenario for a fusion reactor: the renaissance of small edge localized modes

G. F. Harrer, M. Faitsch, L. Radovanovic +13

Tokamak operational regimes with small edge localized modes (ELMs) could be a solution to the problem of large transient heat loads in future fusion reactors because they provide q…

Macroscopic elastic stress and strain produced by irradiation

Luca Reali, Max Boleininger, Mark R. Gilbert +1

Using the notion of eigenstrain produced by the defects formed in a material exposed to high energy neutron irradiation, we develop a method for computing macroscopic elastic stres…

MHD simulations of small ELMs at low triangularity in ASDEX Upgrade

A. Cathey, M. Hoelzl, G. Harrer +9

The development of small- and no-ELM regimes for ITER is a high priority topic due to the risks associated to type-I ELMs. By considering non-linear extended MHD simulations of the…

Energy-selective confinement of fusion-born alpha particles during internal relaxations in a tokamak plasma

Andreas Bierwage, Kouji Shinohara, Yevgen Kazakov +9

Long-pulse operation of a self-sustained fusion reactor using toroidal magnetic containment requires control over the content of alpha particles produced by D-T fusion reactions. O…

Parameter-free quantitative simulation of high dose microstructure and hydrogen retention in ion-irradiated tungsten

Daniel R. Mason, Fredric Granberg, Max Boleininger +3

Hydrogen isotopes are retained in materials for fusion power applications, changing both hydrogen embrittlement and tritium inventory as the microstructure undergoes irradiation da…
