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…

Gyrokinetic analysis and simulation of pedestals, to identify the culprits for energy losses using fingerprints
M. Kotschenreuther, X. Liu, D. R. Hatch +14
Fusion performance in tokamaks hinges critically on the efficacy of the Edge Transport Barrier (ETB) at suppressing energy losses. The new concept of fingerprints is introduced to…

Direct Gyrokinetic Comparison of Pedestal Transport in JET with Carbon and ITER-Like Walls
D. R. Hatch, M. Kotschenreuther, S. M. Mahajan +8
This paper compares the gyrokinetic instabilities and transport in two representative JET pedestals, one (pulse 78697) from the JET configuration with a carbon wall (C) and another…
