Towards reactor-relevant electromagnetic turbulence in the MAST-U spherical tokamak
Daniel Kennedy, Yujia Zhang, Bhavin S Patel +3
We investigate electromagnetic ion-scale turbulence in a high-performing H-mode plasma of the Mega Ampere Spherical Tokamak Upgrade (MAST-U) with local gyrokinetic simulations, ask…

Sensitivities of electron-scale core transport in MAST Upgrade
B. S. Patel, T. Adkins, S. Blackmore +2
Integrated modelling of the Mega Ampere Spherical Tokamak Upgrade (MAST-U) indicates that turbulent electron heat transport can dominate over ion transport across a range of operat…
