How Fusion-Born Alpha Particles Suppress Microturbulence in Burning Plasmas
Alessandro Di Siena, Alejandro Banon Navarro, Pablo Rodriguez-Fernandez +13
A central unresolved question in fusion energy research is whether energetic alpha particles, the primary products of deuterium-tritium fusion reactions, enhance or degrade plasma…

Study of the impact of fast ions on core turbulence at rational surfaces via global gyrokinetic simulations
D. Brioschi, A. Di Siena, R. Bilato +6
In this work, the interplay between fast ions and safety factor rational surfaces is studied in a turbulent plasma via global nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations. Initially, the fast…
