Beltrami fields and knotted vortex structures in incompressible fluid flows
Abstract This paper gives a survey on recent results about the existence of knotted vortex structures in incompressible fluids. This includes the proof of Lord Kelvin's conjecture on the existence of knotted vortex tubes in steady Euler flows and a new probabilistic approach to address Arnold's speculation that typical Beltrami fields should exhibit ...

This paper presents the study of time‐fractional nonlinear fifth‐order Korteweg–de Vries equations by utilizing an adequate novel technique, namely, the q‐homotopy analysis transform method. The fifth‐order Korteweg–de Vries equation has got its importance in the study of magneto‐sound propagation in plasma, capillary gravity water waves, and the ...

Implementation and validation of guiding centre approximation into ERO2.0
Abstract The Monte‐Carlo code ERO2.0 uses full orbit resolution to follow impurity particles throughout the plasma volume to determine the local erosion and deposition fluxes on the plasma‐facing components of fusion devices in magnetic confinement fusion.

Nuclear Fusion Pattern Recognition by Ensemble Learning
Nuclear fusion is the process by which two or more atomic nuclei join together to form a single heavier nucleus. This is usually accompanied by the release of large quantities of energy. This energy could be cheaper, cleaner, and safer than other technology currently in use.

Abstract Advanced divertor configurations modify the magnetic geometry of the divertor to achieve a combination of strong magnetic flux expansion, increased connection length and higher divertor volume—to improve detachment stability, neutral/impurity confinement and heat‐channel broadening.

Integration of kinetic ions in a three‐dimensional Monte‐Carlo neutral transport code
Abstract Charged particles of species different from the major constituents of a plasma might not reach local thermodynamic equilibrium during their lifespan. Such low collisional ions render the often‐used fluid description, assuming Maxwellian velocity distribution, as insufficient. Hence, kinetic treatment of such minorities becomes inevitable.

Distinct turbulence saturation regimes in stellarators [PDF]
In the complex 3D magnetic fields of stellarators, ion-temperature-gradient turbulence is shown to have two distinct saturation regimes, as revealed by petascale numerical simulations, and explained by a simple turbulence theory.

Impurity transport in a mixed-collisionality stellarator plasma [PDF]
A potential threat to the performance of magnetically confined fusion plasmas is the problem of impurity accumulation, which causes the concentration of highly charged impurity ions to rise uncontrollably in the center of the plasma and spoil the energy ...

The term stellar wind is used nowadays to describe any more or less continuous mass loss from a star. With the observations made with satellites in recent years it is becoming clear that most stars are undergoing this form of mass loss, though its magnitude can be very different from one star to another.

Ideal MHD theory of low-frequency Alfven waves in the H-1 Heliac [PDF]
A part analytical, part numerical ideal MHD analysis of low-frequency Alfven wave physics in the H-1 stellarator is given. The three-dimensional, compressible ideal spectrum for H-1 is presented and it is found that despite the low beta (approx.
