Plasma Confinement Mode Classification Using a Sequence-to-Sequence Neural Network With Attention

Francisco Matos, Vlado Menkovski, Alessandro Pau +2

In a typical fusion experiment, the plasma can have several possible confinement modes. At the TCV tokamak, aside from the Low (L) and High (H) confinement modes, an additional mod…

Gyrokinetic investigation of Alfvén instabilities in the presence of turbulence

A. Biancalani, A. Bottino, A. Di Siena +10

The nonlinear dynamics of beta-induced Alfvén Eigenmodes (BAE) driven by energetic particles (EP) in the presence of ion-temperature-gradient (ITG) turbulence is investigated, by m…

New high-confinement regime with fast ions in the core of fusion plasmas

A. Di Siena, R. Bilato, T. Görler +12

The key result of the present work is the theoretical prediction and observation of the formation of a new type of transport barrier in fusion plasmas, called F-ATB (fast ion-induc…

Microtearing modes as the source of magnetic fluctuations in the JET pedestal

D. R. Hatch, M. Kotschenreuther, S. M. Mahajan +15

We report on a detailed study of magnetic fluctuations in the JET pedestal, employing basic theoretical considerations, gyrokinetic simulations, and experimental fluctuation data,…

Nonlinear symmetry breaking in electron temperature gradient driven turbulence

Salomon Janhunen, Gabriele Merlo, Frank Jenko +3

Nonlinear symmetry breaking may occur in systems with two or more states whose linear dynamics displays certain symmetries, one of which is preferred nonlinearly. We have identifie…

Sub-grid-scale effects in magnetised plasma turbulence

Bogdan Teaca, Evgeny A. Gorbunov, Daniel Told +2

In the present paper, we use a coarse-graining approach to investigate the nonlinear redistribution of free energy in both position and scale space for weakly collisional magnetise…
