Steady-state spherical tokamak power reactor with high-temperature-superconductor
A spherical tokamak (ST) with an internal transport barrier (ITB) has the potential to be an ideal fusion power reactor because it not only offers high β performance and blanket replaceability, but also enables self-sustaining operation through a high ...

Abstract We introduce a fast and invertible approximation for fusion plasma simulation data represented as 2D planar meshes with connectivities approximating magnetic field lines along the toroidal dimension in deformed 3D toroidal spaces. Scientific variables (e.g., density and temperature) in these fusion data are interpolated following a complex ...

Localised Microwave Bursts During ELMs on MAST
Bursts of microwave emission are observed during ELM events on the Mega Ampère Spherical Tokamak. In agreement with observations on other machines, these bursts are up to 3 orders of magnitude more intense than the thermal background, but are electron ...

Rotation and Neoclassical Ripple Transport in ITER
Neoclassical transport in the presence of non-axisymmetric magnetic fields causes a toroidal torque known as neoclassical toroidal viscosity (NTV). The toroidal symmetry of ITER will be broken by the finite number of toroidal field coils and by test ...

A novel and efficient method is explored to synthesize 1D single‐crystal sub‐stoichiometric WnO3n‐2 (n = 25) nanowire bundles. The approach utilizes selective low‐energy He+ ion irradiation (27 eV) on Mo‐Ni doped WOx surface, achieving efficient catalyst‐free self‐organized growth of high aspect ratio nanowires at the temperature of 700 °C.

Femtosecond laser irradiation inside Al2O3‐SiO2 and ZrO2‐Al2O3‐SiO2 glasses can induce polarization‐controlled birefringent nanostructures, along with local precipitation of refractory nanocrystals like tetragonal ZrO2 or mullite. These structures yield a persisting positive index contrast with extraordinary thermal stability (>1600 °C), opening a ...

Performance prediction applying different reduced turbulence models to the SMART tokamak
The SMall Aspect Ratio Tokamak (SMART) is currently being commissioned at the University of Seville and will be able to compare the performance of positive and negative triangularity plasmas at low aspect ratio. Predictive simulations have been performed

ETG turbulent transport in the Mega Ampere Spherical Tokamak (MAST) pedestal
The results of a gyrokinetic analysis of turbulent transport driven by the electron temperature gradient (ETG) in the MAST pedestal are presented. Local nonlinear simulations from the gyrokinetic code, GENE, show that heat flux produced by ETG turbulence

Ion‐Mediated Tearing and Kink Instabilities in the Earth's Magnetosphere: Hybrid‐Vlasov Simulations
Abstract We explore the three‐dimensional structure of ion‐kinetic instabilities in a thin current layer using a hybrid‐Vlasov simulation of the Earth's magnetosphere. The simulation shows the simultaneous growth of tearing and kinking instabilities, which develop in the Sun‐Earth and dawn‐dusk directions, respectively, within the magnetotail current ...

Overview of fast particle experiments in the first MAST Upgrade experimental campaigns
MAST-U is equipped with on-axis and off-axis neutral beam injectors (NBI), and these external sources of super-Alfvénic deuterium fast-ions provide opportunities for studying a wide range of phenomena relevant to the physics of alpha-particles in burning
