Plasmakristall‐4 Experiment: 10 Years of Operation in Orbit
Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plasmakristall‐4 (PK‐4) is a microgravity complex plasma laboratory operated for 10 years on board the International Space Station. Its main purpose is the particle‐resolved investigation of generic condensed matter phenomena using strongly coupled suspensions of microparticles immersed in low‐pressure gas‐discharge plasmas.

Coupling Fluid Neutrals to Gyrokinetic Plasma Dynamics for Edge and SOL Turbulence Simulations
Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Accurate modeling of turbulent transport in magnetic confinement fusion devices requires extending first‐principles gyrokinetic simulations from the core to the edge and scrape‐off layer (SOL), where additional physics—particularly plasma–neutrals interactions—must be included.

Edge Fluid Turbulence Simulations of Stellarators With GRILLIX
Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The edge fluid turbulence code GRILLIX has recently been extended from axisymmetric tokamak geometries to support 3D stellarator configurations. Following successful proof‐of‐principle simulations published in Stegmeir et al., we present here a comprehensive simulation of the Wendelstein 7‐AS stellarator.

The Astrophysical Journal LettersMagnetic reconnection and plasma turbulence are ubiquitous and key processes in the Universe. These two processes are suggested to be intrinsically related: magnetic reconnection can develop turbulence, and, in turn, turbulence can influence or excite ...

Heat Load Mitigation Studies in the W7‐X Stellarator Experiment
Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT During the experiments at the stellarator Wendelstein 7‐X (W7‐X) with fully water‐cooled plasma‐facing components (PFC), including carbon‐fiber composite (CFC) divertor targets with a thermal load capability of 10 MW/m2, high performance was achieved.

Effect of Magnetic Islands on Neoclassical Heat Diffusivity in a Global Tokamak Simulation
Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) alter magnetic field topology via island formation and can modify core transport in toroidal fusion devices. Using the global gyrokinetic particle‐in‐cell code XGC‐S, originally developed for stellarator geometries, we quantify how island topology affects neoclassical heat transport in a circular tokamak ...

Towards a Mean‐Field Braginskii Model for Stellarators
Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Experiments in the stellarator Wendelstein 7‐X indicate that particle drifts have a significant impact on the plasma in the scrape‐off layer. However, drift effects have been absent in the mean‐field transport codes such as EMC3‐Eirene. For this reason, we present the first steps towards a mean‐field model that incorporates drifts. The code is
