RF-Specific Tungsten Erosion and Global Transport in ITER under Neon Seeding
Atul Kumar, Dhyanjyoti Nath, Wouter Tierens +15
Ion cyclotron radio-frequency heating (ICRH) is a key auxiliary heating system in ITER, but high-power RF operation can enhance plasma-material interactions through rectified RF sh…
Hydrogen-induced lattice cohesion weakening favors atomic displacement
Liang Gao, Yiran Mao, Markus Wilde +9
Atomic displacement -- the fundamental process underlying diverse deformation and damage phenomena in metals, from irradiation defect production to stress-driven dislocation motion…
Deep-Learning based surrogate models for plasma exhaust simulations -- SOLPS-NN
Stefan Dasbach, Sebastijan Brezinsek, Yunfeng Liang +2
Accurate models of the scrape-off layer are required for the design and operation of tokamak fusion reactors. Scrape-off layer simulations are computationally expensive, difficult…
Tungsten erosion and scrape-off layer transport modelling in L-mode helium plasma discharges in ASDEX Upgrade
G. Alberti, E. Tonello, C. Tuccari +13
Due to its unavoidable presence in thermonuclear DT plasmas and to its peculiar effects on materials, investigating the role of helium (He) in plasma-wall interaction (PWI) in curr…
