Novel SOLPS-ITER simulations of X-point target and snowflake divertors
(IOP, 2022-11)The design and understanding of alternative divertor configurations may be crucial for achieving acceptable steady-state heat and particle material loads for magnetic confinement fusion reactors. Multiple X-point alternative ... -
Development of a synthetic phase contrast imaging diagnostic for turbulence studies at Wendelstein 7-X
(IOP, 2022-03)We present a synthetic phase contrast imaging (PCI) diagnostic for studying turbulence at the Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) stellarator. We first describe the implemented instrument response model, which captures diffraction ... -
Effects of alpha-ion stopping on ignition and ignition criteria in inertial confinement fusion experiments
(AIP, 2023-10)With the advent of ignited plasmas at the National Ignition Facility (NIF), alpha physics has become a driving factor in theoretical understanding and experimental behavior. In this communication, we explore aspects of ...
