Runaway electron control by self-excited waves
Kun Huang, Boris Breizman
Runaway-electron avalanches in tokamak plasmas can be limited by kinetic instabilities driven by the non-Maxwellian runaway distribution. We formulate a reduced model for the quasi…
Runaway electron-induced plasma facing component damage in tokamaks
S. Ratynskaia, M. Hoelzl, E. Nardon +31
This Roadmap article addresses the critical and multifaceted challenge of plasma-facing component (PFC) damage caused by runaway electrons (REs) in tokamaks, a phenomenon that pose…
Parallel expansion of a fuel pellet plasmoid
A. M. Arnold, P. Aleynikov, B. N. Breizman
The problem of the expansion and assimilation of a cryogenic fuel pellet injected into a hot plasma is considered. Due to the transparency of the plasmoid to ambient particles, it…
Simulation of convective transport during frequency chirping of a TAE using the MEGA code
Hooman Hezaveh, Yasushi Todo, Zhisong Qu +2
We present a procedure to examine energetic particle phase-space during long range frequency chirping phenomena in tokamak plasmas. To apply the proposed method, we have performed…
Diffusion regime of electron-electron collisions in weakly ionized plasmas
B. Breizman, G. Stupakov, G. Vekstein
We consider weakly ionized plasma where frequent elastic scattering of electrons on neutrals change the individual acts and the rate of electron-electron collisions significantly.…
Long range frequency chirping of Alfven eigenmodes
Hooman Hezaveh, Zhisong Qu, Boris N. Breizman +1
A theoretical framework has been developed for an NBI scenario to model the hard nonlinear evolution of Global Alfven Eigenmodes (GAEs) where the adiabatic motion of phase-space st…
