The L-H transition in tokamaks: power threshold, density minimum and toroidal-field asymmetry
Brenno De Lucca, Paolo Ricci, Benoit Labit +3
The physical mechanism underlying the L--H transition in tokamaks has remained an open problem for over forty years. We present three-dimensional flux-driven two-fluid simulations…

Comparison of filament properties in real-size GBS simulations and experiments of TCV-X21
Y. Wang, C. Wüthrich, C. Theiler +7
A direct quantitative comparison of Scrape-Off Layer (SOL) filament properties from fluid turbulence simulations using the GBS code and from experiments on the TCV tokamak is perfo…

Accelerated Solvers for Neutral Particle Dynamics in Plasma Simulation
Margherita Guido, Daniel Kressner, Davide Mancini +1
The simulation of turbulence in the boundary region of a tokamak is crucial for understanding and optimizing the performance of fusion reactors. In this work, the use of low-rank l…
