Computing in magnetic fusion

Proceedings of the IEEE, 1981
Computers of every kind have become indispensable to the progress of the U.S. Magnetic Fusion Program. This review provides a broad perspective of every application: control and analysis of experiments; the National Magnetic Fusion Energy Computer Center and its network of machines across the U.S.; the growth of engineering computations; the ...

Magnetic Fusion Basics

Revue Générale Nucléaire, 2007
At the core of the sun and stars, light nuclei combine - or fuse - to create heavier nuclei. This process releases a significant quantity of energy and is the source of the heat and light that we receive. Harnessing this type of reaction on earth for the purpose of generating energy would open the way to almost unlimited resources.

Target Plasma Formation for Magnetic Compression/Magnetized Target Fusion

Physical Review Letters, 1995
Experimental observations of plasma behavior in a novel plasma formation chamber are reported. Experimental results are in reasonable agreement with two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic computations suggesting that the plasma could subsequently be adiabatically compressed by a magnetically driven pusher to yield 1 GJ of fusion energy.

Magnetic Fusion Energy

1978
These lectures on Magnetic Fusion Energy are presented as the transcript of the discussion of the large number of slides and drawings taken from many sources within the U.S. MFE program. In particular, I would like to mention Hal Furth of Princeton, John Dawson at UCLA, the Washington Head Office and may colleagues in the Mirror Program at the ...

Coatings in magnetic fusion devices

Journal of Vacuum Science & Technology A: Vacuum, Surfaces, and Films, 1986
Coated surfaces have been exposed to plasmas in several magnetic confinement fusion devices, including Alcator‐C, DIVA, Doublet‐III, ISX‐B, JET, JFT‐2, JIPP T‐II, JT‐60, PDX, TEXTOR, TFTR, and ZT‐40. Chemical vapor deposited coatings of titanium carbide (TiC) have been most extensively tested and have had mixed results.

Dust technologies for magnetic fusion

Journal of Nuclear Materials, 2011
Abstract Interaction of dust particles with magnetic fusion plasmas opens new opportunities in the field of fusion technology. This study considers using the dust jets for emergency tokamak discharge quench and SOL/wall control. For the emergency quench, a large amount of dust in a kilogram range can be produced and injected in one or sequential ...

Magnetic fusion concepts

2007
Introduction The goal of Chapter 13 is to describe the various magnetic configurations currently under investigation as potential fusion reactors. As will become apparent there is a substantial number of concepts to discuss. To succeed, each of these concepts has to successfully overcome the problems not only of MHD equilibrium and stability ( p ...

Magnetic turnaround for fusion plasmas

Physics World, 1996
In a magnetic fusion reactor, the fuel must be maintained at a temperature of about 108 °C to ensure that the deuterium and tritium nuclei fuse, while the wall of the reactor can be no hotter than about 103 °C, otherwise it will melt. Hence a critical issue for magnetic fusion is the confinement of thermal energy within the plasma.

Superconducting Magnets in Fusion Reactors

2015
A fusion reactor is an artificial sun created under laboratory conditions of high temperature and pressure to produce inexhaustible energy. When two nuclei of hydrogen isotopes are forced to fuse, under high temperature and high pressure, the reaction produces huge amount of energy and the heavier atoms of helium.
