  1. 1. Microinstabilities in Advanced Tokamak and Stellarator Geometries

    Författare :Ansar Mahmood; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tokamaks; microinstabilities; fusion plasmas; ITG; drift waves; stellarators;

    Sammanfattning : The anomalous particle and heat transport observed in magnetically confined plasmas is generally attributed to plasma turbulence driven by short-scale instabilities, called microinstabilities. Understanding the stability limits of microinstabilities and their dependency on the equilibrium configuration is of paramount importance in the effort to predict the performance of future fusion devices such as the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER).

  2. 2. Collisional transport in edge transport barriers and stellarators

    Författare :Stefan Buller; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fusion; tokamak; plasma physics; stellarator; impurity transport; collisional transport; transport; pedestal;

    Sammanfattning : Nuclear fusion has the potential to generate abundant and clean energy. In magnetic confinement fusion, the temperatures needed to achieve fusion are obtained by confining a hot plasma with magnetic fields. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Influence of Geometry on Drift Waves in Tokamaks and Stellarators

    Författare :Tariq Rafiq; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ITG; local magnetic shear; linear instabilities; drift waves;

    Sammanfattning : There is a general consensus that drift waves are responsible for a large amount of transport in fusion experiments and it is of importance to investigate their linear stability and nonlinear evolution. These instabilities have therefore been intensively investigated in tokamaks for the last few decades. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Impurity transport in magnetically confined fusion plasmas

    Författare :Albert Mollén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fusion plasma physics; transport; turbulence; tokamak; gyrokinetic; impurity; stellarator; drift-kinetic; poloidal asymmetry;

    Sammanfattning : Nuclear fusion is foreseen as one of the options for future energy production. In establishing the physics basis of future magnetic fusion reactors it is necessary to find scenarios where the impurity content in the core can be kept low. LÄS MER
