  1. 1. Drift waves in non-circular tokamak geometry

    Författare :Johan Anderson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tokamak geometry; instabilities; drift waves; fusion plasmas;

    Sammanfattning : One of the main concerns in fusion research is to understand the anomalously high transport in magnetically confined plasmas. In recent years, substantial progress in the understanding of transport in terms of drift waves in tokamaks has been achieved. LÄS MER

  2. 2. The role of magnetic perturbations in runaway electron and sawtooth dynamics

    Författare :Gergely Papp; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; magnetic perturbation; fusion plasma physics; runaway mitigation; sawtooth oscillation; tokamak; runaway electrons;

    Sammanfattning : As the world's fusion energy program is increasingly focused towards burning plasma experiments, it is important to address the remaining theoretical issues. In this thesis we focus on the effect of magnetic perturbations on the radial plasma transport. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Simulation and analysis of radiation from runaway electrons

    Författare :Mathias Hoppe; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tokamak; runaway electrons; synthetic diagnostics; fusion; synchrotron radiation; plasma physics; bremsstrahlung;

    Sammanfattning : Electron runaway constitutes one of the primary threats to future tokamak fusion reactors such as ITER. Successful prevention and mitigation of runaways relies on the development of theoretical models which accurately describe the dynamics of runaway electrons, and these models must in turn be validated in experiments.

  4. 4. The role of magnetic perturbations in runaway electron and sawtooth dynamics

    Författare :Gergely Papp; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tokamak; runaway electron; sawtooth oscillation; magnetic perturbation; MHD mode; fusion plasma physics;

    Sammanfattning : Nuclear fusion in tokamaks is a possible future energy production mechanism. Some of the still unsolved problems are connected to the effect of magnetic perturbations on the radial plasma transport. Two such problems are addressed in this thesis. LÄS MER

  5. 5. 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
