Parameter study of ICRH wave propagation in IShTAR [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A crude first assessment of how waves behave is commonly made relying on decoupled dispersion equation roots. In the low density, low temperature region behind the last closed flux surface in a tokamak where the density decays exponentially and where the

Poloidal localization of the explosive onset of edge localized modes

open access: yesNuclear Fusion, 2023
In ASDEX Upgrade lower single null H-mode plasmas, the onset of the explosive phase of Edge Localized Modes (ELMs) is poloidally localized in the X-point/outer strike point (X/OSP) region. From this location, ELMs develop on average towards the low-field

Effects of CT injector acceleration electrode configuration on tokamak penetration [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Through compact toroid (CT) injection experiments on the TEXT-U tokamak (with BT simeq 10 kG and IP simeq 100 kA), it has been shown that the acceleration electrode configuration, particularly in the vicinity of the toroidal field (TF) coils of the ...

Thermal quench induced by a composite pellet-produced plasmoid

open access: yesNuclear Fusion, 2023
Injecting shattered pellets is the critical concept of the envisaged ITER disruption mitigation system (DMS). Rapid deposition of large amounts of material should presumably result in controlled cooling of the entire plasma.

Fast-ion redistribution and loss due to edge perturbations in the ASDEX Upgrade, DIII-D and KSTAR tokamaks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The impact of edge localized modes (ELMs) and externally applied resonant and non-resonant magnetic perturbations (MPs) on fast-ion confinement/transport have been investigated in the ASDEX Upgrade (AUG), DIII-D and KSTAR tokamaks.

MHD Instabilities in Tokamaks [PDF]

open access: yesFusion Science and Technology, 2006
A general introduction to ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) stability of tokamak plasmas is given, using linear perturbations of the ideal MHD equations.

Exploring Experimental Isotope Scaling and Density Limit in Tokamak Transport

open access: yesPlasma
As it turns out, both isotope scaling and density limits are phenomena closely linked to fluid closure. The necessity to include ion viscosity arises for both phenomena. Thus, we have added ion viscosity to our model. The experimental isotope scaling has

Distinct turbulence saturation regimes in stellarators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
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.

High-order coupling of shear and sonic continua in JET plasmas

open access: yesNuclear Fusion, 2023
A recent model coupling the shear-Alfvén and acoustic continua, which depends strongly on the equilibrium shaping and on elongation in particular, is employed to explain the properties of Alfvénic activity observed on JET plasmas below but close to the ...
