A new three-dimensional electromagnetic modeling tool ThinCurr has been developed using the existing PSI-Tet finite-element code in support of conducting structure design work for both the SPARC and DIII-D tokamaks. Within this framework a…
The paper discusses the problem of stability of a two-component plasma and proposes a consistent consideration of quantum and long-range effects to calculate the thermodynamic properties of such a plasma. We restrict ourselves by the case…
We consider the limiting current from an emitting patch whose size is much smaller than the anode-cathode spacing. The limiting current is formulated in terms of an integral equation. It is solved iteratively, first to numerically recover…
The visible camera system EDICAM (Event Detection Intelligent Camera), recently installed on JT-60SA, is simulated to assess whether it can be used for measuring synchrotron radiation from relativistic runaway electrons. In this simulation,…
We study the collision frequencies of charged particles in the complex plasmas with the non-Maxwellian velocity distributions. The average collision frequencies of electron-ion, electron-electron and ion-ion are derived in the two-parameter…
Here I present a summarised description of the general behavior of waves near turning points. I show that when asymptotic matching to a prescribed incident wavefield is performed, the solution changes from being the Airy function to being…
High-performance fusion plasmas, requiring high pressure $\beta$, are not well-understood in stellarator-type experiments. Here, the effect of $\beta$ on ion-temperature-gradient-driven (ITG) turbulence is studied in Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X),…
We report the first closed, analytical expression for the scattering angle of an electron bunch ponderomotively scattered from a counter-propagating, ultra-intense laser pulse, also accounting for radiation reaction (RR). The found…
The paper demonstrates the possibility to use ANSYS HFSS as a versatile simulating tool for antennas facing inhomogeneous anisotropic magnetized plasmas in the Ion Cyclotron Range of Frequencies (ICRF). The methodology used throughout the…
Plasma technology has found widespread applications in numerous domains, yet the techniques to manipulate plasma transport predominantly rely on magnetic control. In this review, we present a streamlined diffusion-migration method to…
Understanding electron and ion heating phenomenon in capacitively coupled radio-frequency plasma discharges is vital for many plasma processing applications. In this article, using particle-in-cell simulation technique we investigate the…
We show that the saturation of resistive tearing modes in a cylindrical tokamak, as well as the corresponding island width, can be directly calculated with an MHD equilibrium code without solving the dynamics and without considering…
Ionization is one of the most fundamental processes in intense laser-matter interaction. It is extremely efficient for clusters in laser fields and often leads to surprisingly high charge states at moderate laser intensities. Here we reveal…
Charged particle transport is an important energy transport mode in the combustion process of inertial confinement fusion plasma. On the one hand, charged particles inside the hot spot have a strong non-equilibrium effect, so it is…
The nonlinear evolution and propagation of a stable dust acoustic solitary wave (DASW) in a non-planar geometry is investigated here. The experiment is performed in a strongly coupled dusty plasma consisting of monodisperse micron particles…
The separation between the last closed flux surface of a plasma and the external coils that magnetically confine it is a limiting factor in the construction of fusion-capable plasma devices. This plasma-coil separation must be large enough…
Angular momentum coupling between a rotating magnetized plasma and torsional Alfv\'en waves carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) is examined. It is not only demonstrated that rotation is the source of Fresnel-Faraday rotation - or…
The National Ignition Facility has recently achieved successful burning plasma and ignition using the inertial confinement fusion (ICF) approach. However, there are still many fundamental physics phenomena that are not well understood,…
$\textit{Tokamak disruptions}$ can give rise to the $\textit{runaway phenomenon}$, which is typical in plasma physics and describes the almost unbound acceleration of electrons to relativistic velocities and can lead to the formation of a…
We present an experimental and simulation-based investigation of the temporal evolution of light emission from a thin, laser-ionized Helium plasma source. We demonstrate an analytic model to calculate the approximate scaling of the…
