X-point and divertor filament dynamics from Gas Puff Imaging on TCV

Curdin Wüthrich, Christian Theiler, Nicola Offeddu +9

A new Gas Puff Imaging (GPI) diagnostic has been installed on the TCV tokamak, providing two-dimensional insights into Scrape-Off-Layer (SOL) turbulence dynamics above, at and belo…

Tracking Blobs in the Turbulent Edge Plasma of a Tokamak Fusion Device

Woonghee Han, Randall A. Pietersen, Rafael Villamor-Lora +7

The analysis of turbulence in plasmas is fundamental in fusion research. Despite extensive progress in theoretical modeling in the past 15 years, we still lack a complete and consi…

Modeling of Particle Transport, Neutrals and Radiation in Magnetically-Confined Plasmas with Aurora

F. Sciortino, T. Odstrčil, A. Cavallaro +8

We present Aurora, an open-source package for particle transport, neutrals and radiation modeling in magnetic confinement fusion plasmas. Aurora's modern multi-language interface e…

Inference of Experimental Radial Impurity Transport on Alcator C-Mod: Bayesian Parameter Estimation and Model Selection

F. Sciortino, N. T. Howard, E. S. Marmar +11

We present a fully Bayesian approach for the inference of radial profiles of impurity transport coefficients and compare its results to neoclassical, gyrofluid and gyrokinetic mode…

Dependence of alpha-particle-driven Alfvén eigenmode linear stability on device magnetic field strength and consequences for next-generation tokamaks

E. A. Tolman, N. F. Loureiro, P. Rodrigues +2

Recently-proposed tokamak concepts use magnetic fields up to 12 T, far higher than in conventional devices, to reduce size and cost. Theoretical and computational study of trends i…
