Predictions of improved confinement in SPARC via energetic particle turbulence stabilization
A. Di Siena, P. Rodriguez-Fernandez, N. T. Howard +8
The recent progress in high-temperature superconductor technologies has led to the design and construction of SPARC, a compact tokamak device expected to reach plasma breakeven wit…
Modeling of Particle Transport, Neutrals and Radiation in Magnetically-Confined Plasmas with Aurora
F. Sciortino, T. Odstrčil, A. Cavallaro +8
We present Aurora, an open-source package for particle transport, neutrals and radiation modeling in magnetic confinement fusion plasmas. Aurora's modern multi-language interface e…
Inference of Experimental Radial Impurity Transport on Alcator C-Mod: Bayesian Parameter Estimation and Model Selection
F. Sciortino, N. T. Howard, E. S. Marmar +11
We present a fully Bayesian approach for the inference of radial profiles of impurity transport coefficients and compare its results to neoclassical, gyrofluid and gyrokinetic mode…
The Dependence of the Impurity Transport on the Dominant Turbulent Regime in ELM-y H-mode Discharges
Tomas Odstrcil, Nathan Howard, Francesco Sciortino +6
Laser blow-off injections of aluminum and tungsten have been performed on the DIII-D tokamak to investigate the variation of impurity transport in a set of dedicated ion and electr…
Effect of plasma elongation on current dynamics during tokamak disruptions
T. Fülöp, P. Helander, O. Vallhagen +6
Plasma terminating disruptions in tokamaks may result in relativistic runaway electron beams with potentially serious consequences for future devices with large plasma currents. In…
Impurity transport in Alcator C-Mod in the presence of poloidal density variation induced by ion cyclotron resonance heating
Albert Mollén, István Pusztai, Matthew L. Reinke +5
Impurity particle transport in an ion cyclotron resonance heated Alcator C-Mod discharge is studied with local gyrokinetic simulations and a theoretical model including the effect…
