First global gyrokinetic profile predictions of ITER burning plasma
A. Di Siena, C. Bourdelle, A. Bañón Navarro +11
In this work, we present the first global gyrokinetic simulations of the ITER baseline scenario operating at 15 MA using GENE-Tango electrostatic and electromagnetic simulations. T…

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…
