Turbulent transport greatly impacts the performance of stellarator magnetic confinement devices. While significant progress has been made on the numerical front, theoretical understanding of turbulence in stellarators is still lacking. In particular, due

This is a summary of my lectures during the 2011 IAC Winter School in Puerto de la Cruz. I give an introduction to the field of stellar populations in galaxies, and highlight some new results. Since the title of the Winter School was {\it Secular Evolution of Galaxies} I mostly concentrate on nearby galaxies, which are best suited to study this theme ...

I review recent observational and theoretical progress in the study of condensations of cool material trapped in the coronae of rapidly rotating stars. Such condensations were discovered over a decade ago, producing transient moving absorption features in the optical Balmerseries lines.

TYPES OF QUASISYMMETRIC STELLARATORS
The property investigation of possible types of quasisymmetric stellarators is the aim of the paper. As a result the quasisymmetry condition in the invariant form has been determined.

Turbulent and Collisional Transport in Optimized Stellarators [PDF]
The stellarator is a fusion energy concept that relies on fully three-dimensional shaping of magnetic fields to confine particles. Stellarators have many favorable properties, including, but not limited to, the ability to operate in steady-state, many ...

The topology of non-resonant stellarator divertors
We apply topological methods to better understand how the magnetic field in the stellarator edge can be diverted away from the confined region. Our primary method is calculating the winding numbers of closed contours, which gives information on the ...

Direct construction of low-aspect-ratio advanced stellarators via asymptotic expansion
Advanced stellarators are promising candidates for fusion reactors due to their intrinsic steady-state operation capability and excellent plasma confinement properties.

Stellar ages and stellar rotation
Stellar ages will play a big role in the next generation of astronomy. Useful to exoplaneteers and galactic archaeologists alike, this relatively under-exploited stellar property is currently limited by the precision of dating techniques. The work presented in this thesis contributes incrementally to a greater understanding of rotation period decay in ...

Ideal MHD stability calculations for compact stellarators
Stability results for high-n ideal local pressure-driven instabilities (ballooning and interchange: modes) are calculated from the COBRA and TERPSICHORE codes and compared for several low aspect ratio stellarators.
