Re-design of EU DEMO with a low aspect ratio

The design point that had been chosen for EU DEMO in 2016 is reviewed here and a modification is proposed with a lower aspect ratio. Previously the same aspect ratio, A, was chosen for EU DEMO as in major tokamak experiments including ITER (A = 3.1), and, ...

DIII-D research to provide solutions for ITER and fusion energy

Olivier Sauter, Stefano Coda

The DIII-D tokamak has elucidated crucial physics and developed projectable solutions for ITER and fusion power plants in the key areas of core performance, boundary heat and particle transport, and integrated scenario operation, with closing the core-edge ...

Modelling and analysis of quench in the 15-kA HTS conductor

Kamil Sedlák, Ortensia Dicuonzo

High Temperature Superconductors (HTS) are very promising materials for possible application in future fusion magnets, with significant R&D progress on HTS conductors in recent years. However, since geometric and thermo-physical characteristics of HTS and ...

Fast ion transport phenomena in turbulent toroidal plasmas

Fabian Manke

In the field of plasma physics, suprathermal ions are encountered e.g. in astrophysical jets, the solar wind, as well as fusion plasmas, where they originate from neutral beam injection or fusion reactions. One aspect of shared interest with astrophysical ...

High-resolution tungsten spectroscopy relevant to the diagnostic of high-temperature tokamak plasmas

Olivier Sauter, Richard Pitts, Ambrogio Fasoli, Stefano Coda, Yves Martin, Basil Duval, Henri Weisen, Yann Camenen, Jan Horacek, Javier García Hernández, Duccio Testa, Nicola Vianello, Mikhail Maslov, Patrick Blanchard, Alessandro Pau, Davide Galassi, Antonio José Pereira de Figueiredo, Liang Yao, Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Cristian Sommariva, Jonathan Graves, Federico Nespoli, Hamish William Patten, Samuel Lanthaler, David Pfefferlé, Jonathan Marc Philippe Faustin, Yang Zou

The x-ray transitions in Cu- and Ni-like tungsten ions in the 5.19-5.26 angstrom wavelength range that are relevant as a high-temperature tokamak diagnostic, in particular for JET in the ITER-like wall configuration, have been studied. Tungsten spectra wer ...

Free-Boundary Simulations of ITER Advanced Scenarios

Karim Besseghir

The successful operation of ITER advanced scenarios is likely to be a major step forward in the development of controlled fusion as a power production source. ITER advanced scenarios raise specific challenges that are not encountered in presently-operated ...

A generic data structure for integrated modelling of tokamak physics and subsystems

Olivier Sauter, Jonathan Bryan Lister

The European Integrated Tokamak Modelling Task Force (ITM-TF) is developing a new type of fully modular and flexible integrated tokamak simulator, which will allow a large variety of simulation types. This ambitious goal requires new concepts of data struc ...

Reconstruction of the electron distribution function during ECRH/ECCD and magnetic reconnection events in a tokamak plasma

Igor Klimanov

The performance of tokamaks is usually described in terms of plasma temperature, density and confinement time. The term temperature implies that the plasma is in thermal equilibrium and its particles have maxwellian (normal) velocity distribution. However, ...
