A new type of stellarator divertor: the hybrid stellarator divertor

Alkesh Punjabi, Allen H. Boozer

A new type of stellarator divertor is found. It has features of both a nonresonant divertor (A. Punjabi and A. H. Boozer, Phys. Plasmas 27, 012503 (2020)) as well as a resonant div…

Carbon Dioxide, Fusion, and Stellarators

Allen H Boozer

Much emotion is expended on the dangers of carbon dioxide, but solutions require reason and recognition of facts: (1) The cost of developing options is approximately a thousand tim…

Simulation of non-resonant stellarator divertor

Alkesh Punjabi, Allen H. Boozer

An efficient numerical method of studying nonresonant stellarator divertors was introduced in Boozer and Punjabi [Phys. Plasmas 25, 092505 (2018)]. This method is used in this pape…

Magnetic turnstiles in nonresonant stellarator divertor

Alkesh Punjabi, Allen H. Boozer

Non-resonant stellarator divertors have magnetic flux tubes, called magnetic turnstiles, that cross cantori, which are fractal remnants of destroyed invariant tori with holes, that…

The rapid destruction of toroidal magnetic surfaces

Allen H Boozer

The operation of ITER will require reliable simulations in order to avoid major damage to the device from disruptions. Disruptions are the sudden breakup of magnetic surfaces acros…

The tritium burn-fraction in DT fusion

Allen H Boozer

The fraction of the tritium that is burned during one pass through a DT fusion system, , is a central issue for success of fusion energy. Reducing the tritium fraction, $f_…

Stellarators as a Fast Path to Fusion

Allen H Boozer

This paper is focused on three points: (1) Overcoming obstacles to tokamak power plants may require a configuration modification as large as that of a stellarator. (2) The demonstr…

Plasma steering to avoid disruptions in ITER and tokamak power plants

Allen H. Boozer

Steering tokamak plasmas is commonly viewed as a way to avoid disruptions and runaway electrons. Plasma steering sounds as safe as driving to work but will be shown to more closely…
