Modeling of runaway electron induced damage on boron-nitride tiles in WEST

Tommaso Rizzi, Svetlana Ratynskaia, Panagiotis Tolias +9

The runaway electron (RE) - induced damage on boron nitride (BN) tiles mounted on the inner bumpers of the WEST tokamak is modeled employing available empirical input and experimen…

Simulation of Shattered Pellet Injections with Plasmoid Drifts in ASDEX Upgrade and ITER

O. Vallhagen, L. Antonsson, P. Halldestam +7

Pellet injection is an important means to fuel and control discharges and mitigate disruptions in reactor-scale fusion devices. To accurately assess the efficiency of these applica…

Reduced kinetic modelling of shattered pellet injection in ASDEX Upgrade

Peter Halldestam, Paul Heinrich, Gergely Papp +8

Plasma-terminating disruptions represent a critical outstanding issue for reactor-relevant tokamaks. ITER will use shattered pellet injection (SPI) as its disruption mitigation sys…

Measurement of zero-frequency fluctuations generated by coupling between Alfven modes in the JET tokamak

Juan Ruiz Ruiz, Jeronimo Garcia, Michael Barnes +13

We report the first experimental detection of a zero-frequency fluctuation that is pumped by an Alfvèn mode in a magnetically confined plasma. Core-localized bidirectional Alfvèn m…

Expulsion of runaway electrons using ECRH in the TCV tokamak

J. Decker, M. Hoppe, U. Sheikh +19

Runaway electrons (REs) are a concern for tokamak fusion reactors from discharge startup to termination. A sudden localized loss of a multi-megaampere RE beam can inflict severe da…

Characteristics of the Alfvénic activity during the current quench in ASDEX Upgrade

P. Heinrich, G. Papp, Ph. Lauber +7

ASDEX Upgrade has developed multiple massive gas injection (MGI) scenarios to investigate runaway electron (RE) dynamics. During the current quench of the MGI induced disruptions,…
