Quasi-single-stage optimization for permanent magnet stellarators

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Advanced stellarators are typically optimized in two stages. The plasma equilibrium is optimized first, followed by the design of coils/permanent magnets.

FOCUS-HTS: a new stellarator coil design code for three-dimensional high-temperature superconducting magnets

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Stellarators mainly utilize magnetic fields from external coils to confine the plasma, enabling steady-state operation while avoiding instabilities like disruptions raised from plasma currents.

Stellarators

open access: yes, 2002
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.

Simplified and Flexible Coils for Stellarators using Single-Stage Optimization

open access: yes
Single-stage optimization, also known as combined plasma-coil algorithms or direct coil optimization, has recently emerged as a possible method to expedite the design of stellarator devices by including, in a single step, confinement, stability, and ...

Density profiles in stellarators: an overview of particle transport, fuelling and profile shaping studies at TJ-II

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
We provide an overview of activities carried out at the TJ-II stellarator for improving our understanding of- and developing plasma physics models for particle density profiles in stellarators.

Optimizing stellarators for large flows

open access: yes, 2014
Plasma flow is damped in stellarators because they are not intrinsically ambipolar, unlike tokamaks, in which the flux-surface averaged radial electric current vanishes for any value of the radial electric field.

Neoclassical transport in quasi-axially symmetric stellarators [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The author presents a numerical and analytic assessment of the transport in two quasi-axially symmetric stellarators, including one variant of the MHH2 class of such devices, and a configuration they refer to as NHH2, closely related to MHH2. Monte Carlo

On a stellar structure for a stellar manifold

open access: yes, 2002
It is well known that a compact two dimensional surface is homeomorphic to a polygon with the edges identified in pairs. This paper not only presents a new proof of this statement but also generalizes it for any connected n-dimensional stellar manifold with a finite number of vertices.

Hydromagnetic stability of a plasma in stellarators

open access: yes, 1969
It is shown that, with the help of the sufficient criterion for hydromagnetic stability of a plasma proposed by Solovev, It is possible to calculate for stellarators a non-trivial plasma pressure limit at which there is hydromagnetic plasma stability ...
