Published in 2017 at "Fusion Engineering and Design"

DOI: 10.1016/j.fusengdes.2017.01.003

Abstract: Abstract A control-oriented, two-timescale, linear, dynamic, response model of the rotational transform ι profile and the normalized beta βN is proposed based on experimental data from the DIII-D tokamak. Dedicated system-identification experiments without feedback control… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Journal of Plasma Physics"

DOI: 10.1017/s0022377824001351

Abstract: We apply a continuation method to recently optimized stellarator equilibria with excellent quasi-axisymmetry to generate new equilibria with a wide range of rotational transform profiles. Using these equilibria, we investigate how the rotational transform affects… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Physics of Plasmas"

DOI: 10.1063/1.5080242

Abstract: Tokamak-like sawtooth oscillations are observed in the Compact Toroidal Hybrid (CTH), a current-carrying stellarator. CTH has the unique ability to change the amount of the applied vacuum rotational transform from external stellarator coils relative to… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Nuclear Fusion"

DOI: 10.1088/1741-4326/ad1c93

Abstract: Alfvénic activity has been observed in the TJ-II stellarator which resembles the frequency sweeping demonstrated by Alfvén cascade modes in tokamaks. A numerical validation study was conducted using a reduced magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model to show… read more here.
