Rapid Vacuum Response Calculations for Non-axisymmetric Plasma Geometries
Jacob Halpern, Nikolas Logan, Carolin Nührenberg +2
We present a fast, open-source calculation of the vacuum response matrix and surface inductance in non-axisymmetric geometries capable of running with up to 10^5 boundary points in…
Quasi-isodynamic stellarators with low turbulence as fusion reactor candidates
Alan G. Goodman, Pavlos Xanthopoulos, Gabriel G. Plunk +7
The stellarator is a type of fusion energy device that - if properly designed - could provide clean, safe, and abundant energy to the grid. To generate this energy, a stellarator m…
Enhanced transport at high plasma pressure and sub-threshold kinetic ballooning modes in Wendelstein 7-X
P. Mulholland, K. Aleynikova, B. J. Faber +5
High-performance fusion plasmas, requiring high pressure , are not well-understood in stellarator-type experiments. Here, the effect of on ion-temperature-gradient-driven (I…
Properties of a new quasi-axisymmetric configuration
S. A. Henneberg, M. Drevlak, C. Nührenberg +4
A novel, compact, quasi-axisymmetric configuration is presented which exhibits low fast-particle losses and is stable to ideal MHD instabilities. The design has fast-particle loss…
Configurational Effects on Alfvenic modes and Confinement in the H-1NF Heliac
B. D. Blackwell, D. G. Pretty, J. Howard +12
The flexible Heliac coil set of helical axis stellarator H-1 (R=1m, <r>~0.15-0.2 m) permits access to a wide range of magnetic configurations. Surprisingly, in the absence of any o…
Statistical characterization of the interchange-instability spectrum of a separable ideal-magnetohydrodynamic model system
R. L. Dewar, T. Tatsuno, Z. Yoshida +2
A Suydam-unstable circular cylinder of plasma with periodic boundary conditions in the axial direction is studied within the approximation of linearized ideal magnetohydrodynamics…
