A novel mechanism for spontaneous ExB shear layer formation in scrape-off-layer plasmas
Brendan Shanahan, Eduardo Rodriguez
We present a novel mechanism for spontaneous shear-flow generation in the scrape-off layer (SOL) of magnetically confined plasmas, arising at abrupt changes in the sheath connectio…

Numerical methods for stellarator simulations in BOUT++
David Bold, Brendan Shanahan
Modeling the Scape-off layer (SOL) of stellarator fusion devices is challenging due to the complicated magnetic topology, requiring numerical tools to solve transport equations for…
