Extending near-axis equilibria in DESC
Dario Panici, Eduardo Rodriguez, Rory Conlin +2
The near-axis description of optimised stellarator fields has proven to be a powerful tool both for design and understanding of this magnetic confinement concept. The description c…
The shear Alfvén continuum of quasisymmetric stellarators
Elizabeth J. Paul, Abdullah Hyder, Eduardo Rodríguez +2
The shear Alfvén wave (SAW) continuum plays a critical role in the stability of energetic particle-driven Alfvén eigenmodes. We develop a theoretical framework to analyze the SAW c…
Back to the Figure-8 Stellarator
G. G. Plunk, M. Drevlak, E. Rodriguez +3
The first stellarator design was a simple tube of plasma twisted and closed on itself in the form of a figure-8. The line of such devices, however, was quickly ended over concerns…
The Kinetic Ion-Temperature-Gradient-driven instability and its localisation
Eduardo Rodriguez, Alessandro Zocco
We construct a description of Ion Temperature Gradient (ITG) driven localised linear modes which retains both wave-particle and magnetic drift resonant effects while capturing the…
Boundary-induced effect on the spoke-like activity in ExB plasma
Eduardo Rodriguez, Valentin Skoutnev, Yevgeny Raitses +3
The spoke instability in an Penning discharge is shown to be strongly affected by the boundary that is perpendicular to field lines. The instability is the stronges…
