Overview of ST40 results and future: expanding the physics basis of high-field spherical tokamaks
The goal of the ST40 programme is to explore the physics of high-field spherical tokamaks (STs), to validate empirical and theoretical models and, hence, to build confidence in predictions required to support the design of future generations of STs. ST40

Turbulent equipartition pinch of toroidal momentum in spherical torus [PDF]
We present a new analytic expression for turbulent equipartition (TEP) pinch of toroidal angular momentum originating from magnetic field inhomogeneity of spherical torus (ST) plasmas.

Modeling electron temperature profiles in the pedestal with simple formulas for ETG transport
This paper reports on the refinement (building on (Hatch D.R. et al 2022 Phys. Plasmas 29 062501)) and application of simple formulas for electron heat transport from electron temperature gradient (ETG) driven turbulence in the pedestal. The formulas are

Development of a data-driven neural network model for electron thermal transport in NSTX
A data-driven electron thermal transport neural network (ETT-NN) model, trained on TRANSP interpretative analysis results of National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX), was developed to enable faster and more accurate ETT computation for spherical ...

Testing of the SOLPS-ITER code at Globus-M2 spherical tokamak with detached divertor
In according to a present understanding of Scrape-Off Layer (SOL) physics, future thermonuclear devices like ITER, DEMO and beyond, require high radiation regimes in order to reduce heat loads on tokamak divertor. Recent experiments at ASDEX Upgrade, JET

Breakdown of adiabatic invariance in spherical tokamaks [PDF]
Due to the weak but strongly varying magnetic field, fast ions in spherical tokamaks are susceptible to the breakdown of adiabatic invariance. Beam ions in present-day spherical tokamaks are typically marginally adiabatic or super-adiabatic. Super-adiabatic ions have energies in the intermediate range where the longitudinal invariant is still ...

Observation of stationary filaments with resonant magnetic perturbations in NSTX
The application of resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) induces striated heat fluxes on the divertor plate in tokamaks. These striated heat fluxes were previously considered strike point splitting by the intersection between the divertor and predicted ...

Microstability physics as illuminated in the spherical tokamak
Spherical tokamaks (STs) have attractive features for fusion, and there is considerable interest in understanding their transport properties which depend on the underlying microinstabilities. STs are capable of operation with low magnetic fields and exhibit large inhomogeneity in the toroidal magnetic field.

Fusion, tokamaks, and plasma control - An introduction and tutorial
The paper discusses the process behind fusion reaction, the magnetic confinement of plasma to sustain fusion reactions, different kinds of tokamaks used for the magnetic plasma confinement, the operation of tokamaks, and the control of tokamaks.

Full orbit-following simulations of thermal ions show that finite ion-orbit width effects create charge separation near the last closed flux surface (LCFS) which generates a localized radial electric field.
