Assessment of stellarators as reactors

, 1993
Stellarators have significant operational advantages over tokamaks as ignited steady-state reactors: no dangerous disruptions, no need for continuous current drive and power recirculated to the plasma, less severe constraints on the plasma parameters and

Physics of magnetic confinement fusion

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
Fusion is the energy source of the universe. The local conditions in the core of the Sun allow the transfer of mass into energy, which is finally released in the form of radiation.

The residual flow in well-optimized stellarators

The gyrokinetic theory of the residual flow, in the electrostatic limit, is revisited, with optimized stellarators in mind. We consider general initial conditions for the problem, and identify cases that lead to a non-zonal residual electrostatic ...

Stellarators with enhanced tritium confinement and edge radiation control

Nuclear Fusion
A stellarator design is described with the purpose of achieving three goals: (1) enhance the confinement time of tritium. (2) Have a sufficient density of high- Z impurities to radiate the thermal power escaping from the core while having an extremely ...

Investigating the role of divertor geometry on density build-up in the island divertor

Nuclear Materials and Energy
The island divertor has been proposed for power and particle exhaust in stellarators. It is investigated in the Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) experiment. The divertor capabilities such as particle exhaust or radiative power dissipation scale with the divertor ...

Quasisymmetry Equations for Conventional Stellarators

, 1994
"General quasisymmetry condition, which demands the independence of B^2 on one of the angular Boozer coordinates, is reduced to two equations containing only geometrical characteristics and helical field of a stellarator.

Core plasma fueling by fast inward particle transport after hydrogen pellet injection in Wendelstein 7-X

Nuclear Fusion
A large database of more than 1000 individual cryogenic hydrogen pellets injected into Wendelstein 7-X for plasma fueling was analyzed to improve the understanding of the three phases of the process: the ablation, deposition and transport of the pellet ...

Stellar magnetism

Stellar Magnetism affects all spectral types and exists and varies throughout the evolution of stars. Magnetic fields can affect not only the interior of stars, but also their circumstellar environments. In this chapter, we concentrate on the magnetic fields that can be measured at the surface of stars through the influence of the Zeeman effect on ...
