Neural network predictions of plasma confinement loss in Wendelstein 7-X pellet-fueled discharges
K. C. Hammond, J. -P. Bähner, J. Baldzuhn +17
The energy confinement time is a key parameter of a magnetized fusion plasma, helping to determine whether ignition can occur. Experiments in tokamaks and stellarators have shown t…

Global gyrokinetic analysis of Wendelstein 7-X discharge: unveiling the importance of trapped-electron-mode and electron-temperature-gradient turbulence
Felix Wilms, Alejandro Bañón Navarro, Thomas Windisch +8
We present the first nonlinear, gyrokinetic, radially global simulation of a discharge of the Wendelstein 7-X-like stellarator (W7-X), including kinetic electrons, an equilibrium r…
