Numerical asymptotics of near-axis expansions of quasisymmetric magnetohydrostatic equilibria with anisotropic pressure

Lanke Fu, Eduardo Rodriguez, Rory Conlin +1

Quasisymmetry (QS) is a property of special magnetic configurations, where the magnetic field strength, but not necessarily the full vector field, has a direction of symmetry. QS l…

Trapped-particle precession and modes in quasi-symmetric stellarators and tokamaks: a near-axis perspective

E. Rodriguez, R. J. J. Mackenbach

This paper presents the calculation of the bounce-averaged drift of trapped particles in a near-axis framework for axisymmetric and quasisymmetric magnetic fields that possess up-d…

Higher order theory of quasi-isodynamicity near the magnetic axis of stellarators

Eduardo Rodriguez, Gabe G. Plunk

The condition of quasi-isodynamicity is derived to second order in the distance from the magnetic axis. We do so using a formulation of omnigenity that explicitly requires the bala…

MHD stability and the effects of shaping: a near-axis view for tokamaks and quasisymmetric stellarators

Eduardo Rodriguez

How much does the cross-section of a toroidal magnetic field configuration tell us about its MHD stability? It is generally believed that positive triangularity (typically leading…

Constructing the space of quasisymmetric stellarators

Eduardo Rodriguez, Wrick Sengupta, Amitava Bhattacharjee

A simplified view of the space of optimised stellarators has the potential to guide and aid the design efforts of magnetic confinement configurations suitable for future fusion rea…

Phases and phase-transitions in quasisymmetric configuration space

Eduardo Rodriguez, Wrick Sengupta, Amitava Bhattacharjee

We explore the structure of the space of quasisymmetric configurations identifying them by their magnetic axes, described as 3D closed curves. We demonstrate that this topological…
