Damage to Relativistic Interstellar Spacecraft by ISM Impact Gas Accumulation

Jon Drobny, Alexander N. Cohen, Davide Curreli +3

As part of the NASA Starlight collaboration, we look at the implications of radiation effects from impacts with the interstellar medium (ISM) on a directed energy driven relativist…

INGRID: an interactive grid generator for 2D edge plasma modeling

B. M. Garcia, M. V. Umansky, J. Watkins +2

A fusion boundary-plasma domain is defined by axisymmetric magnetic surfaces where the geometry is often complicated by the presence of one or more X-points; and modeling boundary…

Gingred, a general grid generator for 2D edge plasma modeling

Olivier Izacard, Maxim Umansky

The current work reports the development of a new general grid generator called Gingred for arbitrary (e.g., number of X-points) 2D magnetic equilibria and plate geometries. A stan…

Testing nonlocal models of electron thermal conduction for magnetic and inertial confinement fusion applications

Jonathan Peter Brodrick, Robert J. Kingham, Michael M. Marinak +10

Three models for nonlocal electron thermal transport are here compared against Vlasov-Fokker-Planck (VFP) codes to assess their accuracy in situations relevant to both inertial fus…

BOUT++: Recent and current developments

B. D. Dudson, A. Allen, G. Breyiannis +12

BOUT++ is a 3D nonlinear finite-difference plasma simulation code, capable of solving quite general systems of PDEs, but targeted particularly on studies of the edge region of toka…

Non-local parallel transport in BOUT++

J. T. Omotani, B. D. Dudson, E. Havlickova +1

Non-local closures allow kinetic effects on parallel transport to be included in fluid simulations. This is especially important in the scrape-off layer, but to be useful there the…
