Calculating the 3D magnetic field of ITER for European TBM studies
Simppa Äkäslompolo, Otto Asunta, Thijs Bergmans +6
The magnetic perturbation due to the ferromagnetic test blanket modules (TBMs) may deteriorate fast ion confinement in ITER. This effect must be quantified by numerical studies in…

Bump formation in the runaway electron tail
J. Decker, E. Hirvijoki, O. Embreus +4
Runaway electrons are generated in a magnetized plasma when the parallel electric field exceeds a critical value. For such electrons with energies typically reaching tens of MeV, t…

Effective Critical Electric Field for Runaway-Electron Generation
Adam Stahl, Eero Hirvijoki, Joan Decker +2
In this Letter we investigate factors that influence the effective critical electric field for runaway-electron generation in plasmas. We present numerical solutions of the kinetic…
