Observation of magnetic islands in tokamak plasmas during the suppression of edge-localized modes

Basil Duval, Timothy Goodman, Olivier Sauter, Stefano Coda, Laurie Porte, Benoît Labit, Federico Alberto Alfredo Felici, Antoine Pierre Emmanuel Alexis Merle, Umar Sheikh, Mengdi Kong, Cristian Sommariva, Alessandro Pau

In tokamaks, a leading platform for fusion energy, periodic filamentary plasma eruptions known as edge-localized modes occur in plasmas with high-energy confinement and steep pressure profiles at the plasma edge. These edge-localized modes could damage the ...

First characterization of the SPIDER beam AC component with the Beamlet Current Monitor

Basile Marie Jacques Pouradier Duteil

SPIDER is the full scale prototype for the ITER Heating Neutral Beam source, hosted at the Neutral Beam Test Facility in Padova, Italy. The behavior of the beam must be thoroughly investigated to bring the machine's performance in line with ITER's requirem ...

Integration concept of an Electron Cyclotron System in DEMO

René Chavan, Minh Quang Tran

The pre-conceptual layout for an electron cyclotron system (ECS) in DEMO is described. The present DEMO ECS considers only equatorial ports for both plasma heating and neoclassical tearing mode (NTM) control. This differs from ITER, where four launchers in ...

RF plasma simulations using the TOMATOR 1D code: a case study for TCV helium ECRH plasmas

Stefano Coda

The 1-dimensional reaction-diffusion-convection code TOMATOR-1D describes plasma production by RF waves inside a tokamak using the Braginskii continuity and heat balance equations. The model simulates self-consistent radial density and temperature profiles ...

Impact of electron-scale turbulence and multi-scale interactions in the JET tokamak

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

Experimental observations in JET tokamak plasmas and gyrokinetic simulations point to an important role, for electron heat transport, of electron-scale instabilities and of their interaction with ion-scale instabilities. Since these effects are maximized f ...
