In this work, the MARS-F/K codes (Liu Y Q et al 2000 Phys. Plasmas 7 3681 & Liu Y Q et al 2008 Phys. Plasmas 15 112503) are utilized to model the passive and active control of the n=1 (n is the toroidal mode number) resistive wall mode (RWM) in a spherical tokamak (aspect rat…

In this work, we use reduced and perturbative models to examine the stability of TAEs during the ITB afterglow in JET experiments designed for the observation of alpha driven TAEs. We demonstrate that in JET-like conditions, it is sufficient to use an incompressible cold plasma model for the TAE to reproduce the experimental adiabatic features…

A novel high-performance computing algorithm, developed in response to the next generation of computational challenges associated with burning plasma regimes in ITER-scale tokamak devices, has been tested and is described herein. LOCUST-GPU 2 The Lorentz-Orbit Code for Use in Stellarators and Tokamaks (LOCUST) is designed for computationally scal…
