Designing A Buildable Optimized Stellarator to Confine Electron-Positron Plasmas
Pedro F. Gil, Jason Smoniewski, Paul Huslage +7
In this paper, the design of the the plasma equilibrium and superconducting coils for the Electrons and Positrons in an Optimized Stellarator EPOS experiment is presented. With new…
Stochastic single-stage stellarator optimization using fixed-boundary equilibria
Pedro F. Gil, Jason Smoniewski, Rogerio Jorge +2
In this paper, single-stage stellarator optimization is combined with stochastic coil optimization to improve the robustness of the stellarator as compared to deterministic methods…
Electromagnetic coil optimization for reduced Lorentz forces
Siena Hurwitz, Matt Landreman, Alan Kaptanoglu
The reduction of magnetic forces on electromagnetic coils is an important consideration in the design of high-field devices such as the stellarator or tokamak. Unfortunately, these…
Strain Optimization for ReBCO High-Temperature Superconducting Stellarator Coils in SIMSOPT
Paul Huslage, Elisabeth J. Paul, Mohammed Haque. Pedro F. Gil +3
This work provides an optimization mechanism to ensure the compatibility of ReBCO (Rare-earth Barium Copper Oxide) high-temperature superconducting (HTS) tapes with non-planar stel…
