Kinetic simulations of X-B and O-X-B mode conversion and its deterioration at high input power
A. V. Arefiev, I. Y. Dodin, A. Köhn +4
Spherical tokamak plasmas are typically overdense and thus inaccessible to externally-injected microwaves in the electron cyclotron range. The electrostatic electron Bernstein wave…
Overview of recent physics results from MAST
A Kirk, J Adamek, RJ Akers +160
New results from MAST are presented that focus on validating models in order to extrapolate to future devices. Measurements during start-up experiments have shown how the bulk ion…
Towards nonaxisymmetry; initial results using the Flux Coordinate Independent method in BOUT++
Brendan Shanahan, Peter Hill, Ben Dudson
Fluid simulation of stellarator edge transport is difficult due to the complexities of mesh generation; the stochastic edge and strong nonaxisymmetry inhibit the use of field align…
Hermes: Global plasma edge fluid turbulence simulations
Ben Dudson, Jarrod Leddy
The transport of heat and particles in the relatively collisional edge regions of magnetically confined plasmas is a scientifically challenging and technologically important proble…
QED-driven laser absorption
M. C. Levy, T. G. Blackburn, N. Ratan +13
Absorption covers the physical processes which convert intense photon flux into energetic particles when a high-power laser illuminates optically-thick matter. It underpins importa…
Dirichlet boundary conditions for arbitrary-shaped boundaries in stellarator-like magnetic fields for the Flux-Coordinate Independent method
Peter Hill, Brendan Shanahan, Ben Dudson
We present a technique for handling Dirichlet boundary conditions with the Flux Coordinate Independent (FCI) parallel derivative operator with arbitrary-shaped material geometry in…
