Divertor shaping with neutral baffling as a solution to the tokamak power exhaust challenge

K. Verhaegh, J. R. Harrison, D. Moulton +20

Exhausting power from the hot fusion core to the plasma-facing components is one of the biggest challenges in fusion energy. The MAST Upgrade tokamak uniquely integrates strong con…

Magnetic flutter effect on validated edge turbulence simulations

Kaiyu Zhang, Wladimir Zholobenko, Andreas Stegmeir +2

Small magnetic fluctuations () are intrinsically present in a magnetic confinement plasma due to turbulent currents. While the perpendicular transport of part…

Direct laser acceleration in underdense plasmas with multi-PW lasers: a path to high-charge, GeV-class electron bunches

R. Babjak, L. Willingale, A. Arefiev +1

The direct laser acceleration (DLA) of electrons in underdense plasmas can provide 100s of nC of electrons accelerated to near-GeV energies using currently available lasers. Here w…

Revealing Non-equilibrium and Relaxation in Warm Dense Matter

Jan Vorberger, Thomas R. Preston, Nikita Medvedev +4

Experiments creating extreme states of matter almost invariably create non-equilibrium states. These are very interesting in their own right but need to be understood even if the u…

Probing non-linear MHD stability of the EDA H-mode in ASDEX Upgrade

A Cathey, M Hoelzl, L Gil +11

Regimes of operation in tokamaks that are devoid of large ELMs have to be better understood to extrapolate their applicability to reactor-relevant devices. This paper describes non…

MHD simulations of formation, sustainment and loss of Quiescent H-mode in the all-tungsten ASDEX Upgrade

Lorenz Meier, Matthias Hoelzl, Andres Cathey +10

Periodic edge localized modes (ELMs) are the non-linear consequences of pressure-gradient-driven ballooning modes and current-driven peeling modes becoming unstable in the pedestal…
