Global scaling of the heat transport in fusion plasmas

Sara Moradi, Johan Anderson, Michele Romanelli +2

A global heat flux model based on a fractional derivative of plasma pressure is proposed for the heat transport in fusion plasmas. The degree of the fractional derivative of the he…

Comprehensive evaluation of the linear stability of Alfvén eigenmodes driven by alpha particles in an ITER baseline scenario

A. C. A. Figueiredo, P. Rodrigues, D. Borba +8

The linear stability of Alfvén eigenmodes in the presence of fusion-born alpha particles is thoroughly assessed for two variants of an ITER baseline scenario, which differ signific…

Sensitivity of alpha-particle-driven Alfven eigenmodes to q-profile variation in ITER scenarios

P. Rodrigues, A. C. A. Figueiredo, D. Borba +8

A perturbative hybrid ideal-MHD/drift-kinetic approach to assess the stability of alpha-particle-driven Alfven eigenmodes in burning plasmas is used to show that certain foreseen I…

Viriato: a Fourier-Hermite spectral code for strongly magnetised fluid-kinetic plasma dynamics

N. F. Loureiro, W. Dorland, L. Fazendeiro +4

We report on the algorithms and numerical methods used in Viriato, a novel fluid-kinetic code that solves two distinct sets of equations: (i) the Kinetic Reduced Electron Heating M…

Effects of the equilibrium model on impurity transport in tokamaks

Andreas Skyman, Luis Fazendeiro, Daniel Tegnered +3

Gyrokinetic simulations of ion temperature gradient mode and trapped electron mode driven impurity transport in a realistic tokamak geometry are presented and compared with results…
