Nonlinear three-dimensional electromagnetic simulations are employed to study the dynamics of edge localized modes (ELMs) driven by intermediate wavelength peeling-ballooning modes. It is found that the early behavior of the modes is similar to expectations from linear, ideal peeling-ballooning mode theory, with the modes growing linearly at a frac…

Self-consistent simulations of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) [R.Aymar, P. Barabaschi, and Y. Shimomura, Plasma Phys. Controlled Fusion 44, 519 (2002)] have been carried out using the JETTO-integrated modeling code in which theory-motivated models are used for the H-mode pedestal and for the stability conditions that le…

Tritium accumulating in codeposits in the gaps between plasma facing components is a safety concern in next step fusion machines as suitable removal techniques have yet not been developed. We report on Imaging Plate measurements of the tritium areal distribution on the side surface of graphite/CFC tiles installed in the TFTR bumper limiter and JET …

The structure of amorphous In x Se y alloys has been studied by a first principles tight-binding molecular dynamics technique. The three-dimensional amorphous structures with different densities at different compositions were prepared by quick quenching from the liquid phase. The characteristics of short-range order, namely radial distribution func…

A full orbit code is used to compute collisionless losses of fusion particles from three proposed burning plasma tokamaks: the International Tokamak Experimental Reactor ITER; a spherical tokamak power plant (STPP) [T. C. Hender, A. Bond, J. Edwards, P. J. Karditsas, K. G. McClements, J. Mustoe, D. V. Sherwood, G. M. Voss, and H. R. Wilson, Fusion …

An analysis has been made of the IFMIF lithium loop activation using the time-dependent, activation, transport and deposition code, TRACT (TRansport of ACTivation). Corresponding operator dose rates have also been derived using the neutron and photon transport Monte Carlo code MCNP-4C, enabling an assessment of operator exposure, both during IFMIF …

An analytic interatomic bond-order potential BOP is derived that depends explicitly on the group number of the sp -valent element. This is achieved by generalizing the previously published BOP for group-IV elements by extrapolating from half-full occupancy using a simple envelope function for the upper bound of the bond order. This interatomic pote…

This article is dedicated to the characterization of turbulent transport in the scrape-off layer of the Mega Ampere Spherical Tokamak [A. Sykes and et al. , Phys. Plasmas 8 , 2101 (2001)] as a function of the average density n L . The aim is to answer a renewed interest in this subject since the bursty character of turbulence in the scrape-off laye…

The current status of nuclear data evaluations for fusion technologies is reviewed. Well-qualified data are available for neutronics and activation calculations of fusion power reactors and the next-step device ITER, the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor. Major challenges for the further development of fusion nuclear data arise from …

The analysis of equilibrium conditions might be irrelevant to determine the importance of a certain set of atomic data. We show, that in non-equilibrium and optically thick plasmas intercombination transitions between highly excited states as well as higher order dielectronic satellite transitions are of extraordinary importance for diagnostics. In…
