Stellar coronae [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1997
The last two decades have seen the emergence of a new field in stellar astrophysics, the study of stellar coronae mostly in X-ray domain. With the advent of soft X-ray imagery X-ray emission was found from many thousands of solar-like stars. I will summarize the most important findings of X-ray surveys of late type stars and put the results in the ...

Dynamics of zonal flow-like structures in the edge of the TJ-II stellarator

open access: yes, 2012
The dynamics of fluctuating electric field structures in the edge of the TJ-II stellarator, that display zonal flow-like traits, is studied. These structures have been shown to be global and affect particle transport dynamically [J.A. Alonso et al., Nucl.

Stellarators

open access: yesFusion Science and Technology, 2004
Stellarators are toroidal devices where the required rotational transform of the magnetic field lines is generated by external field coils and not via an induced net toroidal plasma current. This confinement scheme has the advantages that, in principle, steady-state plasma operation is possible and that it does not have to brace itself against ...

Global Alfven Eigenmodes in the H-1 heliac [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Recent upgrades in H-1 power supplies have enabled the operation of the H-1 experiment at higher heating powers than previously attainable. A heating power scan in mixed hydrogen/helium plasmas reveals a change in mode activity with increasing heating ...

Experimental and numerical study of error fields in the CNT stellarator

open access: yes, 2016
Sources of error fields were indirectly inferred in a stellarator by reconciling computed and numerical flux surfaces. Sources considered so far include the displacements and tilts (but not the deformations, yet) of the four circular coils featured in ...

Identification of important error fields in stellarators using Hessian matrix method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Error fields are predominantly attributed to inevitable coil imperfections. Controlling error fields during coil fabrication and assembly is crucial for stellarators.

A novel discontinuous-Galerkin deterministic neutronics model for fusion applications: workflow for stellarator reactor design studies

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Stellarator reactor design and optimization requires quick and accurate neutronic simulations for obtaining tritium breeding ratio, coil neutron flux, and volumetric neutron heating.

Initial design concepts for solid boron injection in ITER

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy
As part of ITER’s consideration to change its first wall material from beryllium to tungsten, the ITER Organization has proposed studying the feasibility of real-time solid boron injection (SBI) into the plasma to coat the walls and divertor to ...

On neoclassical impurity transport in stellarator geometry

open access: yes, 2013
The impurity dynamics in stellarators has become an issue of moderate concern due to the inherent tendency of the impurities to accumulate in the core when the neoclassical ambipolar radial electric field points radially inwards (ion root regime).

Heat Load Mitigation Studies in the W7‐X Stellarator Experiment

open access: yesContributions 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.
