Two-fluid boundary turbulence simulations in reversed field pinch plasmas
M. Giacomin, B. Momo, I. Predebon +2
Turbulent transport in magnetic confinement fusion devices governs the overall plasma confinement properties and regulates the plasma-material interaction at the first wall. In the…
Three-dimensional boundary turbulence simulations of a RFX-mod plasma in the presence of voltage biasing
M. Giacomin, N. Vianello, R. Cavazzana +3
Three-dimensional turbulence simulations of a RFX-mod diverted plasma are performed in the presence of a biasing electrode. The simulations show a strong suppression of turbulent t…
Lessons learned after three years of SPIDER operation and the first MITICA integrated tests
D. Marcuzzi, V. Toigo, M. Boldrin +139
ITER envisages the use of two heating neutral beam injectors plus an optional one as part of the auxiliary heating and current drive system. The 16.5 MW expected neutral beam power…
Spatiotemporal synchronization of drift waves in a magnetron sputtering plasma
E. Martines, M. Zuin, R. Cavazzana +5
A feedforward scheme is applied for drift waves control in a magnetized magnetron sputtering plasma. A system of driven electrodes collecting electron current in a limited region o…
A microscopic instability in neutral magnetized plasmas
M. Marino, M. Zuin, A. Carati +2
We show that in a neutral magnetized plasma there exist microscopic oscillatory modes, with wavelengths of the order of magnitude of the mean interparticle distance, which become u…
A first principles explanation for the density limit in magnetized plasmas
M. Zuin, A. Carati, M. Marino +2
Fusion research on magnetic confinement is confronted with a severe problem concerning the electron densities ne to be used in fusion devices. Indeed, high densities are mandatory…
