Deflation Techniques for Stellarator Equilibrium and Optimization
Dario Panici, Byoungchan Jang, Rory Conlin +3
Stellarator optimization is a multi-objective, non-convex problem characterized by a complex objective landscape containing many local minima. The solution resulting from a single…

Omnigenous umbilic stellarators
R. Gaur, D. Panici, T. M. Elder +6
To better understand the dependence of the magnetic field structure in the plasma edge on the plasma boundary shape, in the context of X-point and island divertor designs, we defin…

Surface Current Optimization and Coil-Cutting Algorithms for Stage-Two Stellarator Optimization
Dario Panici, Rory Conlin, Rahul Gaur +8
Stellarator optimization often takes a two-stage approach, where in the first stage the boundary is varied in order to optimize for some physics metrics, while in the second stage…
