Turbulent relaxation patterns in SOL plasma
R Varennes, G Dif-Pradalier, P Ghendrih +5
Relaxations of localized over-density in a plane transverse to the magnetic field are numericallyinvestigated under the effect of drift-wave and interchange drives in SOL condition…
Stable Deuterium-Tritium burning plasmas with improved confinement in the presence of energetic-ion instabilities
Jeronimo Garcia, Yevgen Kazakov, Rui Coelho +18
Providing stable and clean energy sources is a necessity for the increasing demands of humanity. Energy produced by fusion reactions, in particular in tokamaks, is a promising path…
Optimizing beam-ion confinement in ITER by adjusting the toroidal phase of the 3-D magnetic fields applied for ELM control
L. Sanchis, M. Garcia-Munoz, E. Viezzer +8
The confinement of Neutral Beam Injection (NBI) particles in the presence of n=3 Resonant Magnetic Perturbations (RMPs) in 15 MA ITER DT plasmas has been studied using full orbit A…
Towards enhanced performance in fusion plasmas via turbulence suppression by MeV ions
S. Mazzi, J. Garcia, D. Zarzoso +9
Megaelectron volt (MeV) alpha particles will be the main source of plasma heating in magnetic confinement fusion reactors. Yet, instead of heating fuel ions, most of the energy of…
Basic microscopic plasma physics from N-body mechanics
Dominique Escande, Didier Bénisti, Yves Elskens +2
Computing is not understanding. This is exemplified by the multiple and discordant interpretations of Landau damping still present after seventy years. For long deemed impossible,…
Cross-code gyrokinetic verification and benchmark on the linear collisionless dynamics of the geodesic acoustic mode
A. Biancalani, A. Bottino, C. Ehrlacher +10
The linear properties of the geodesic acoustic modes (GAM) in tokamaks are investigated by means of the comparison of analytical theory and gyrokinetic numerical simulations. The d…
