Modeling of plasma transport during edge-localized mode in tokamak using a kinetic Vlasov-Poisson code
Ce Wang, Sven Van Loo, Geert Verdoolaege
A kinetic parallel transport code KOBRA based on a finite-volume method is developed to study edge localized mode (ELM) plasma transport from the mid-plane to divertor targets. The…

Revisiting confinement scalings and fusion performance with a perspective optimized for extrapolation
Jalal Butt, Geert Verdoolaege, Stanley M. Kaye +1
Recent advances in high-temperature-superconductor technology have made substantially higher toroidal magnetic fields technologically accessible, reopening the design space for com…
