MGKDB: An IMAS-aligned multicode gyrokinetic simulation database for reproducible fusion turbulence modeling and data-driven analysis

Craig Michoski, David R. Hatch, Dongyang Kuang +14

Expensive fusion simulations are commonly preserved in code-specific formats that limit discovery, comparison, and reuse. We present the Multiscale GyroKinetic DataBase (MGKDB), an…

The Fusion Equilibrium Challenge: Inferring Magnetic Geometry Without Magnetic Diagnostics

Tapan Ganatma Nakkina, Matthew Waller, Craig Michoski +6

Next-generation fusion reactor devices such as SPARC, ARC, and CFETR will operate in extreme neutron environments that compromise the magnetic sensors traditionally used to reconst…

Machine learning methods for modelling local, linear gyrokinetic simulations of MAST-U pedestal turbulence

Anna Niemelä, Daniel Jordan, Aaro Järvinen +8

Gyrokinetic (GK) stability strongly influences the performance of high-confinement-mode pedestals in spherical tokamak plasmas. High-fidelity gyrokinetic codes such as GENE can mod…

Quantifying Resolution Limits in Pedestal Profile Measurements with Gaussian Process Regression

Norman M. Cao, David R. Hatch, Craig Michoski +4

Edge transport barriers (ETBs) in magnetically confined fusion plasmas, commonly known as pedestals, play a crucial role in achieving high confinement plasmas. However, their defin…

Stability and Transport of Gyrokinetic Critical Pedestals

J. F. Parisi, A. O. Nelson, W. Guttenfelder +11

A gyrokinetic threshold model for pedestal width-height scaling prediction is applied to multiple devices and to a shaping and aspect-ratio scan giving $Δ_{\mathrm{ped}} = 0.92 A^{…
