We investigate the conditions for triggering the plasmoid instability in a dynamically forming current sheet in the resistive magnetohydrodynamic framework, using a pseudo-spectral code applied to the Orszag-Tang vortex at Lundquist number…
AI applications in fusion is a maturing field, playing a key role as surrogate models and digital twins to overcome computational expense limitations and insufficiently characterised phenomena, and expanding the horizon for real-time…
This paper investigates stochastic solenoidal magnetohydrodynamics within the field-theoretic Martin-Siggia-Rose-De Dominicis-Janssen formalism, with a specific focus on the stability of the system when spatial mirror (parity) symmetry is…
Ultrafast microwave power pulsation is demonstrated as an effective strategy to enhance CO2 conversion in atmospheric-pressure plasma reactors. While initial experiments at several hundred watts in a compact coaxial plasma torch showed…
Reliable confinement and stable performance of tokamak fusion plasmas require accurate real-time magnetic shape control. A promising route to reduced latency and increased flexibility in plasma control systems (PCS) is to emulate…
The stability of subcritical perpendicular fast magnetosonic shocks, which are propagating at 1.7 times the fast magnetosonic speed, is investigated using two-dimensional PIC simulations. The plasma, composed of electrons and fully ionized…
Vector beams with spatially structured polarization and intertwined spin-orbital angular momentum (SAM-OAM) provide powerful degrees of freedom for tailoring light-matter interactions. While such structured beams are well established in the…
A new neural network model for a quasilinear saturation rule has been developed to map linear gyrokinetic data to nonlinear saturated potential magnitudes to predict the total energy and particle fluxes. The training dataset is taken from…
Lithium plays a dual role in deuterium-tritium fusion systems by enabling tritium breeding in blankets and providing an efficient heat-removal medium in liquid-metal components. Here, we combine nuclear data for deuterium-tritium and…
In the Tokamak \`a Configuration Variable (TCV), infrared thermography (IR) is currently composed of the horizontal, vertical, and tangential infrared systems (HIR, VIR, TIR), which all use Equus 81k M cameras. The IR diagnostics obtain the…
Ionization potential depression (IPD) is of crucial importance to understand and accurately predict the properties of dense partially ionized plasmas. Many models of IPD have been developed that, however, exhibit largely varying results.…
Dense quantum plasmas out of equilibrium are successfully modeled using quantum kinetic equations, such as the quantum Boltzmann, Landau or Balescu-Lenard equation. However, these equations do not properly take into account correlation…
We present the first experimental evidence of inhomogeneous melting in a finite dusty plasma crystal confined in an anisotropic potential well. By systematically tuning the confinement anisotropy and applying controlled laser heating,…
Electron Bernstein Waves (EBWs) are electrostatic waves than can propagate in overdense plasmas without density cutoff, making them suitable for high density plasma heating. Since EBWs cannot be directly launched from vacuum, mode…
This paper presents results from systematic investigations conducted in the HYPERION facility to quantify permeabilities of hydrogen isotopes in FLiBe over a temperature range of 773K - 973K. To address the knowledge gap resulting from…
Numerical modeling of the edge and scrape-off layer (SOL) must account for atomic processes such as hydrogenic ionization and recombination, charge-exchange, and line radiation. Their reaction rates depend non-linearly on density and…
We present the FreeGSNKE Pulse Design Tool (FPDT), an open-source, Python-based computational framework that enables in silico testing and predictive design of tokamak plasma scenarios and control strategies. The FPDT couples the FreeGSNKE…
We report measurements of the electron drift mobility in dense argon gas over an extended range of densities, temperatures, and electric fields, supplementing our earlier work. The measurements confirm the validity of the heuristic model we…
Modeling the Scape-off layer (SOL) of stellarator fusion devices is challenging due to the complicated magnetic topology, requiring numerical tools to solve transport equations for realistic geometries. Previously the flux coordinate…
This study investigates the characteristics of X-pinch plasmas driven under low current rise rate ($dI/dt$) conditions using soft x-ray spectroscopy combined with the Bennett relation. X-pinch experiments were conducted on the SNU X-pinch…
