Proof of concept of a fast surrogate model of the VMEC code via neural networks in Wendelstein 7-X scenarios
Andrea Merlo, Daniel Böckenhoff, Jonathan Schilling +7
In magnetic confinement fusion research, the achievement of high plasma pressure is key to reaching the goal of net energy production. The magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model is used t…

Validating the ASCOT modelling of NBI fast ions in Wendelstein 7-X stellarator
S. Äkäslompolo, P. Drewelow, Y. Gao +37
The first fast ion experiments in Wendelstein 7-X were performed in 2018. They are one of the first steps in demonstrating the optimised fast ion confinement of the stellarator. Th…

Verification of the global gyrokinetic stellarator code XGC-S for linear ion temperature gradient driven modes
Michael D. J. Cole, Robert Hager, Toseo Moritaka +5
XGC (X-point Gyrokinetic Code) is a whole-volume, total-f gyrokinetic particle-in-cell code developed for modelling tokamaks. In recent work, XGC has been extended to model more ge…
