Bootstrap Current Modeling in M3D-C1
Saurabh Saxena, Nathaniel Ferraro, Mike F. Martin +1
Bootstrap current plays a crucial role in the equilibrium of magnetically confined plasmas, particularly in quasisymmetric (QS) stellarators and in tokamaks, where it can represent…
Coupled 2-D MHD and runaway electron fluid simulations of SPARC disruptions
R. Datta, C. Clauser, N. Ferraro +3
Runaway electrons (REs) generated during disruption events in tokamaks can carry mega-Ampere level currents, potentially causing damage to plasma-facing components. Understanding R…
Flexible Stellarator Physics Facility
F. I. Parra, S. -G. Baek, M. Churchill +21
We propose to build a Flexible Stellarator Physics Facility to explore promising regions of the vast parameter space of disruption-free stellarator solutions for Fusion Pilot Plant…
Approach to nonlinear magnetohydrodynamic simulations in stellarator geometry
Yao Zhou, N. M. Ferraro, S. C. Jardin +1
The capability to model the nonlinear magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) evolution of stellarator plasmas is developed by extending the M3D- code to allow non-axisymmetric domain geome…
Observations of Heteroclinic Bifurcations in Resistive MHD Simulations of the Plasma Response to Resonant Magnetic Perturbations
T. E. Evans, W. Wu, G. P. Canal +1
A new class of static magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) magnetic island bifurcations is identified in rotating spherical tokamak plasmas during single- and two-fluid resistive MHD simulati…
