Disambiguation of magnetic sensors in ITER
M. J. Hole, S. D. Pinches, G. Vayakis +3
ITER will possess approximately 500 magnetic sensors (mainly measuring poloidal flux) distributed across the first wall. The coils are at known locations but the matching signals n…
Access and sustainment of ELMy H-mode operation for ITER Pre-Fusion Power Operation plasmas using JINTRAC
E. Tholerus, L. Garzotti, V. Parail +15
In the initial stages of ITER operation, ELM mitigation systems need to be commissioned. This requires controlled flat-top operation in type-I ELMy H-mode regimes. Hydrogen or heli…
Saturation of fishbone instability through zonal flows driven by energetic particle transport in tokamak plasmas
G. Brochard, C. Liu, X. Wei +17
Gyrokinetic and kinetic-MHD simulations are performed for the fishbone instability in the DIII-D discharge #178631, chosen for validation of first-principles simulations to predict…
EP-Stability-WF: an IMAS-integrated workflow for energetic particle stability
V. -A. Popa, Ph. Lauber, T. Hayward-Schneider +3
The confinement of energetic particles (EPs) generated by fusion reactions and external heating methods is crucial for the performance of future fusion devices. However, EP transpo…
Saturation of fishbone instability by self-generated zonal flows in tokamak plasmas
G. Brochard, C. Liu, X. Wei +13
Gyrokinetic simulations of the fishbone instability in DIII-D tokamak plasmas find that self-generated zonal flows can dominate the nonlinear saturation by preventing coherent stru…
Optimizing beam-ion confinement in ITER by adjusting the toroidal phase of the 3-D magnetic fields applied for ELM control
L. Sanchis, M. Garcia-Munoz, E. Viezzer +8
The confinement of Neutral Beam Injection (NBI) particles in the presence of n=3 Resonant Magnetic Perturbations (RMPs) in 15 MA ITER DT plasmas has been studied using full orbit A…
The initial step towards JOREK integration in IMAS
Dejan Penko, Leon Kos, Guido Huijsmans +1
JOREK is being adapted to work with the Integrated Modelling & Analysis Suite (IMAS) which is being actively developed and used by the ITER Organization, the EUROfusion community a…
The impact of anisotropy on ITER scenarios
M. J. Hole, Z. Qu, S. Pinches +4
We report on the impact of anisotropy to tokamak plasma configuration and stability. Our focus is on analysis of the impact of anisotropy on ITER pre-fusion power operation 5~MA, $…
Comprehensive evaluation of the linear stability of Alfvén eigenmodes driven by alpha particles in an ITER baseline scenario
A. C. A. Figueiredo, P. Rodrigues, D. Borba +8
The linear stability of Alfvén eigenmodes in the presence of fusion-born alpha particles is thoroughly assessed for two variants of an ITER baseline scenario, which differ signific…
Sensitivity of alpha-particle-driven Alfven eigenmodes to q-profile variation in ITER scenarios
P. Rodrigues, A. C. A. Figueiredo, D. Borba +8
A perturbative hybrid ideal-MHD/drift-kinetic approach to assess the stability of alpha-particle-driven Alfven eigenmodes in burning plasmas is used to show that certain foreseen I…
Fast particle-driven ion cyclotron emission (ICE) in tokamak plasmas and the case for an ICE diagnostic in ITER
K. G. McClements, R. D'Inca, R. O. Dendy +6
Fast particle-driven waves in the ion cyclotron frequency range (ion cyclotron emission or ICE) have provided a valuable diagnostic of confined and escaping fast ions in many tokam…
Energetic particle instabilities in fusion plasmas
S E Sharapov, B Alper, H L Berk +41
Remarkable progress has been made in diagnosing energetic particle instabilities on present-day machines and in establishing a theoretical framework for describing them. This overv…
Double-resonant fast particle-wave interaction
Mirjam Schneller, Philipp Lauber, Michael Brüdgam +2
In future fusion devices fast particles must be well confined in order to transfer their energy to the background plasma. Magnetohydrodynamic instabilities like Toroidal Alfvén Eig…
