SPECTRE: A robust solver for 3D equilibria with arbitrary topology
E. Balkovic, J. Loizu, E. Lanti +6
SPECTRE is a new computational code that solves three‑dimensional plasma equilibrium problems with arbitrary magnetic topology using a multi‑region relaxed MHD model and a trust‑re…

Enhanced performance in quasi-isodynamic max- stellarators with a turbulent particle pinch
G. G. Plunk, A. G. Goodman, P. Xanthopoulos +7
Recent stellarator reactor designs demonstrate mostly outward turbulent particle transport, which, without advanced fueling technology, inhibits the formation of density gradients…

Back to the Figure-8 Stellarator
G. G. Plunk, M. Drevlak, E. Rodriguez +3
The first stellarator design was a simple tube of plasma twisted and closed on itself in the form of a figure-8. The line of such devices, however, was quickly ended over concerns…
