Full wave modeling of radio-frequency beams in tokamaks in the electron cyclotron frequency range

Simulation of full wave, without paraxial approximation, high-resolution solution of wave equations in frequency domain in the electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) frequency range for realistic Tokamak plasma parameters became possible by using recently formulated hybrid iterative algorithm [Svidzinski et al., Phys. Plasmas 25, 082509 (2018)] for numerically solving discretized wave equations. This approach combines time evolution and iterative relaxation techniques into iteration cycles. This algorithm is implemented in 2D code FullWave, solving wave equations in Tokamaks in cold and hot plasma models, and it has been tested in 3D full wave iterative RF beams simulation tool, which is presently being developed to model 3D ECRH RF beams in fusion devices using dynamic grid adaptation. The results of 2D full wave modeling, assuming specified toroidal mode number, of ECRH RF beams in DIII-D plasma, performed in the cold and hot plasma models for outboard and top launch scenarios using FullWave are presented. Nonlocal hot plasma response model, based on accurate numerical solution of linearized Vlasov equation, is used to model beam propagation and absorption in the 2nd electron cyclotron harmonic region. Demonstration of capability of the hybrid iterative algorithm to model ECRH RF beams in 3D is made by simulating a substantial part of realistic beam in DIII-D, launched from outboard side of the machine. All relevant physics of RF beam propagation, most of which is not captured in paraxial approximation, such as beam's divergence, interference between the X and O modes in the beam, X-O mode conversion, beam splitting into the X and O mode beams, transformation of beam's cross section, and absorption at the 2nd electron cyclotron harmonic, is captured in the simulations. A numerical technique to find an optimal beam polarization at the launcher to launch a nearly pure X or O mode beam in plasma is developed and tested.

The impact of collisionality on the runaway electron avalanche during a tokamak disruption

The exponential growth (avalanching) of runaway electrons (REs) during a tokamak disruption continues to be a large uncertainty in RE modeling. The present work investigates the impact of tokamak geometry on the efficiency of the avalanche mechanism across a broad range of disruption scenarios. It is found that the parameter ν *,crit ⁠, describing the collisionality at the critical energy to run away, delineates how toroidal geometry impacts RE formation. In particular, utilizing a reduced but self-consistent description of plasma power balance, it is shown that for a high-density deuterium-dominated plasma, ν *,crit is robustly less than one, resulting in a substantial decrease in the efficiency of the RE avalanche compared to predictions from slab geometry. In contrast, for plasmas containing a substantial quantity of neon or argon, ν *,crit ≳1, no reduction of the avalanche is observed due to toroidal geometry. This sharp contrast in the impact of low- vs high-Z material results primarily from the relatively strong radiative cooling from high-Z impurities, enabling the plasma to be radiatively pinned at low temperatures and thus large electric fields, even for modest quantities of high-Z material.

Inverse aspect-ratio expanded tokamak equilibria

Following Greene et al. [Phys. Fluids 14, 671 (1971)] and Connor et al. [Phys. Plasmas 31, 577 (1988); Plasma Phys. Control. Fusion 34, 161 (1992); and Nucl. Fusion 33, 1533 (1993)], the Grad-Shafranov equation for an axisymmetric tokamak plasma equilibrium is solved via an expansion in the, supposedly small, inverse aspect-ratio of the plasma, ϵ. The displacements of equilibrium magnetic flux-surfaces due to plasma shaping are assumed to be $\mathcal{O}$(ϵ) smaller than the minor radii of the surfaces, but no other restriction is placed on the nature of the shaping. The solution of the Grad-Shafranov equation is matched to a vacuum solution that extends to infinity, and consists of an expansion in toroidal functions. The external poloidal magnetic field generated by a finite set of discrete external poloidal magnetic field-coils is calculated, and incorporated into the toroidal function expansion. In this manner, the shape of a large aspect-ratio tokamak plasma is directly related to the currents flowing in the external poloidal field-coils. Finally, a pedestal in the plasma pressure, and the associated spike in the bootstrap current, are incorporated into the model.

Modeling the electron cyclotron emission radiation signature from suprathermal electrons in a tokamak

An Electron Cyclotron Emission (ECE) modeling code has been developed to model ECE radiation with an arbitrary electron momentum distribution, a small oblique angle, both ordinary (O-mode) and extraordinary polarizations (X-mode), and multiple cyclotron frequency harmonics. The emission and absorption coefficients are calculated using the Poynting theorem from the cold plasma dispersion and the electron–microwave interaction from the full anti-Hermitian tensor. The modeling shows several ECE radiation signatures that can be used to diagnose the population of suprathermal electrons in a tokamak. First, in an n = 2 X-mode (X2) optically thick plasma and oblique ECE view, the modeling shows that only suprathermal electrons, which reside in a finite region of the velocity and space domains, can effectively generate cyclotron emissions to the ECE receiver. The code also finds that the O1 mode is sensitive to suprathermal electrons of both a high v ⊥ and v || , while the X2 mode is dominantly sensitive to suprathermal electrons of a high v ⊥ . Finally, the modeling shows that an oblique ECE system with both X/O polarization and a broad frequency coverage can be used to effectively yield information of the suprathermal electron population in a tokamak.

Design of a Thomson scattering diagnostic for the SMall Aspect Ratio Tokamak (SMART)

Here, we describe the design of a Thomson scattering (TS) diagnostic to be used on the SMall Aspect Ratio Tokamak (SMART). SMART is a spherical tokamak being commissioned in Spain that aims to explore positive triangularity and negative triangularity plasma scenarios at a low aspect ratio. The SMART TS diagnostic is designed to operate at high spatial resolution, 6 mm scattering length in the low-field side and 9 mm in the high-field side regions, and a wide dynamic range, electron temperature from 1 eV to 1 keV and density from 5 x 10 18 m -3 to 1 x 10 20 m -3 ⁠, to resolve large gradients formed at the plasma edge and in the scrape-off layer (SOL) under different triangularities and low aspect ratios. A 2 J @1064 nm laser will be used that is capable of operating in the burst mode at 1, 2, and 4 kHz to investigate fast phenomena and at 30 Hz to study 1 s (or more) long discharges. The scattered light will be collected over an angular range of 60° – 120° from 28 spatial points in the midplane covering the entire plasma width and the outer midplane SOL. Each scattering signal will be spectrally resolved on five wavelength channels of a polychromator to obtain the electron temperature measurement. We will also present a method to monitor in situ laser alignment in the core during calibrations and plasma operations.

Propagation of ion cyclotron emission in the DIII-D tokamak

Experiments in L- and H-mode plasmas performed on the DIII-D tokamak explored ion cyclotron emission (ICE) propagation via the recently upgraded ICE diagnostic. The distance between the plasma and the outer wall was scanned to alter the evanescent region, which was seen to impact the detection of runaway electron-driven whistler modes in a comparable frequency range to typical ICE harmonics (f≳10fci) [Heidbrink et al., Plasma Phys. Controlled Fusion 61, 014007 (2018)]. In L-mode plasmas, core ICE did not exhibit clear trends as the plasma-wall distance was altered. Instead, inadvertent changes to the fast ion density correlated with different ICE fine structures; the most spectral bands (spaced ∼150–200 kHz apart) were observed at the highest fast ion density, and a just single band when nfast decreased by ∼ 40%. The full-wave Petra-M code simulated core ICE propagation through the plasma and to ICE probes, agreeing with experimental findings that these are likely compressional fast waves, which propagate to probe locations with no dependence on plasma-wall gap. Edge ICE in H-mode plasmas was similarly unaffected by plasma-wall distance. Unlike in core ICE cases, there were negligible changes to the edge fast ion distribution and edge bulk plasma profiles. However, changes in ELM frequency seemed most closely tied to ICE behavior. Ultimately, core and edge ICE did not exhibit clear dependencies on the plasma-wall distance, and ICE harmonics were observed with even the largest plasma-wall gaps. This independence bodes well for similar diagnostics in future tokamaks, which might be placed further from high radiation areas without adversely impacting measurement capabilities.

Self-consistent modeling of tokamak edge plasma transport with lithium sources

Magnetic confinement fusion devices require effective heat and particle exhaust solutions on the divertor plates to operate sustainably, especially under reactor-relevant conditions. Liquid lithium divertors have been proposed to address two major challenges: control of excessive heat flux to plasma-facing components through vapor shielding and minimization of core plasma contamination from impurities. The National Spherical Torus Experiment-Upgrade (NSTX-U) will explore lithium as a divertor material due to its potential to meet both objectives. We present a self-consistent coupling framework between the plasma boundary transport code UEDGE and the lithium wall transport code Wall–Li to evaluate the feasibility and operational limits of lithium-based divertors. The model aims to optimize lithium sourcing levels to prevent core plasma contamination via fuel dilution while ensuring divertor protection through vapor shielding. This integrated framework, applicable to any tokamak with lithium sources, dynamically adjusts lithium sourcing based on local plasma conditions and surface temperature. The coupled model is tested using NSTX-like geometry and plasma conditions to assess its performance and reliability. Wall–Li calculates lithium fluxes from plasma-facing components, incorporating physical sputtering, thermally enhanced sputtering, and evaporation driven by surface temperature and ion flux. These fluxes are reintroduced into UEDGE as neutral lithium atoms, enabling simulation of their transport and distribution within the plasma. UEDGE computes plasma and neutral transport, surface heat flux, and iteratively feeds this information back to Wall–Li. A small time step is employed to ensure numerical stability and convergence, enabling accurate simulations over typical tokamak discharge durations. This integrated modeling approach provides a robust tool for identifying operational regimes that balance effective lithium sourcing with minimal core plasma contamination, offering critical insights for optimizing lithium-based divertor systems in current and future fusion devices.

The Impact of Disruptions on the Economics of a Tokamak Power Plant

Tokamaks are often considered to be a leading candidate for near-term, cost-effective fusion energy, but these devices are susceptible to sudden loss of confinement events called disruptions. The threat of disruptions has garnered serious attention in research for the next generation of burning plasma experiments, such as ITER, but has received little treatment in economic studies of magnetic fusion energy. In this paper, we present a model for quantifying the effect of disruptions on the cost of electricity produced by a tokamak power plant (TPP). We outline the various ways disruptions increase costs and decrease revenues, introduce metrics to quantify these effects, and add them to a levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) model. Additionally, we identify several rate-limiting repair steps and introduce a classification system of disruption types based on the time to return to operations. We demonstrate how the LCOE model can be used to find the cost of electricity and the requirements for disruption handling of a TPP, and we further highlight where future research can have a strong impact in neutralizing the “showstopping” potential of disruptions.

Projected global stability of high beta MAST-U spherical tokamak plasmas

Assessment of the limits of stability of tokamak plasmas is essential to operation in high fusion performance ranges without disruption of the plasma current. Projected equilibria have been generated for the MAST-U spherical tokamak experiment, an upgrade of the previous MAST device, in order to prepare for operation. These equilibria are scanned in pressure and current profiles, and assessed with the DCON and MARS-F stability codes to find the so-called 'no-wall' beta limit, above which resistive wall mode instabilities can be expected in the absence of other stabilising effects. The no-wall limit was generally found to increase as plasma internal inductance increased. The equilibria are also assessed for the 'with-wall' limit, theoretically the highest achievable performance point, again with the DCON and MARS-F codes, including different approximate axisymmetric walls, and with the VALEN code which includes a 3D model of the surrounding conducting structure. Similar limits were found, despite the difference between the 2D and 3D codes in the treatment of the wall. Conducting passive stabilisation plates, which were newly installed in MAST-U, are in a region of significant mode perturbation when the plasma β N is sufficiently high and eddy currents are driven in these structures. Due to the increased stabilising effect of the wall in MAST-U vs. MAST, a significant gap exists between the approximate no-wall limits of β N / l i = 6.71 and 7.13, found from DCON and MARS-F respectively, and the with-wall limits of β N / l i = 8.23 and 8.53 for the equilibrium profiles analysed in this study. This opens a region of high beta operating space in MAST-U for potentially stable operation if non-ideal effects or active control can stabilise the resistive wall mode.

Thermal confinement and transport in spherical tokamaks: a review

Here, we review the thermal plasma confinement and transport properties observed and predicted in low aspect ratio tokamaks, or spherical tokamaks (STs), which can depart significantly from those observed at higher aspect ratio. In particular, thermal energy confinement scalings show a strong, near linear dependence of energy confinement time on toroidal magnetic field, while the dependence on plasma current is more modest, the opposite of what is seen at higher aspect ratio. STs have revealed a very strong improvement in normalized confinement with decreasing collisionality, much stronger than at higher aspect ratio, which bodes well for an ST-based fusion pilot plant should this trend continue at an even lower collisionality than has already been accessed. These differences arise because of fundamental differences in transport in STs due to the more extreme toroidicity (i.e. reduced region of bad curvature), and to the relatively larger $E_r \times B$ shearing rates, both of which can suppress electrostatic drift wave instabilities at both ion and electron gyroradius scales. In addition, electromagnetic effects are much stronger in STs because they operate at high β T . Gyrokinetic (GK) studies, coupled with low- and high-k turbulence measurements, have shed light on the underlying physics controlling transport. At lower β T , both ion- and electron-scale electrostatic drift turbulence may be responsible for transport. At higher β T , microtearing, kinetic ballooning, and hybrid trapped electron/kinetic ballooning modes increasingly play a role, and they have a much stronger impact in the core of ST plasmas than at higher aspect ratio. Flow shear affects the balance between ion- and electron-scale modes. Non-linear GK simulations find regimes where the electron heat flux decreases with decreasing collisionality, consistent with the experimental global normalized confinement scaling. The ST is unique in that the relatively low toroidal magnetic field allows for localized measurements of electron-scale turbulence, and this coupled with turbulence measurements at ion-scales has facilitated detailed comparisons with GK simulations. These data have provided compelling evidence for the presence of ion temperature gradient and electron temperature gradient turbulence in some plasmas, and direct experimental support for the impact of experimental actuators like rotation shear, density gradient and magnetic shear on turbulence and transport.

Fast calculation of the tokamak vertical instability

There has been recent interest in fast calculations of the tokamak axisymmetric vertical instability for real time feedback control purposes. It is shown that the maximum eigenvalue for the basic rigid version of this stability problem can be obtained by finding the positive root to a simple scalar function. This function can be generalized to include plasma mass and has complexity linear in the number of conductive elements. The formulation is based on standard matrix decompositions of the fixed-geometry part of the eigenproblem. The calculation bottleneck is the summary of mutual inductances from the reconstructed equilibrium current density. The with-mass spectrum can be made fully real-valued by the addition of a critical amount of damping with negligible effect on the vertical growth rate. Furthermore, the calculation has been implemented in the plasma control system at the DIII-D tokamak and used in experiments.

Development of the first relativistic electron loss probe with pitch and energy resolution in the DIII-D tokamak

A relativistic electron probe has been developed in the DIII-D tokamak, capable of simultaneously resolving pitch angles and energies of runaway electrons (REs) for the first time. Due to the relativistic speeds of REs, their gyro-orbit size becomes comparable to those of fast deuterium with energies in the tens of keV range. This allows for the measurement of RE strike images on a phosphor plane, with their orbits being deflected by the Lorentz force as they pass through a pinhole aperture. The strike positions correspond to the energies and pitch of the incident REs. Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport Code has shown that an ultra-thin phosphor coating significantly reduces the energy deposition from γ-rays, while allowing a much greater deposition from REs, minimizing the background noise. Finally, the novel system, developed for the DIII-D tokamak, is expected to provide unprecedented insights into the phase-space dynamics of REs.

A review of collaborative studies between the NSTX/-U and MAST/-U spherical tokamaks

The National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX) at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory in the United States, and the mega ampere spherical tokamak (MAST) at the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority in the United Kingdom, and their respective upgrades (NSTX-U and MAST-U) are two MAST fusion devices that have operated roughly over the past two decades. Both devices have made significant contributions to understanding spherical tokamak (ST) plasma physics, and fusion plasmas in general, and both have contributed data to multi-machine database studies. Several diagnostics have been physically moved from one machine to the other by diagnostic teams working on both devices. Collaboration has benefited both research teams in the areas of operational expertise, scenario development, and equilibrium reconstruction techniques. More focused comparative studies between the two devices have been pursued over the years in many areas as well, including stability calculations, disruption characterization, pedestal and edge localized mode stability, confinement and transport, energetic particles, and heating and current drive modelling. Together NSTX/-U and MAST/-U set the stage for the future of STs, which is entering the phase of design of demonstration power plant devices.

A study of resistive peeling–ballooning modes across spherical tokamaks

We investigate how non-ideal-magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) effects, in particular plasma resistivity, impact the peeling–ballooning stability thresholds in spherical tokamaks. This analysis follows the discovery of resistive kink-peeling modes in ELMing National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX) discharges. In the present study we extend this modeling to ELMing pulses in the Mega Ampere Spherical Tokamak (MAST) and MAST—Upgrade (MAST-U), where we find a clear resistive scaling for peeling–ballooning modes. While in NSTX ideal-MHD predicts stability for ELMing discharges, in MAST-U we find that the plasma is slightly unstable to peeling–ballooning modes, but is fully stabilized once diamagnetic effects are considered in terms of a growth rate normalization. A resistive power law scaling is calculated for these modes on MAST-U, which lies in between that of tearing modes and resistive interchange modes. A comparison between M3D-C1 and NIMROD shows reasonable agreement for this scaling. Resistivity destabilizes the modes and the peeling–ballooning unstable domain is considerably expanded in both, MAST and MAST-U. In addition to the MAST/-U pulses we also analyze resistive PB stability in a NSTX-similarity discharge on DIII-D. While having a different aspect ratio from NSTX, this discharge uses NSTX-like shaping parameters, toroidal field and plasma current. By considering these discharges alongside NSTX cases, we identify conditions influencing the onset of resistive peeling–ballooning modes. Furthermore, our findings indicate that magnetic shear in the pedestal region is closely linked to the emergence of resistive edge modes.

Effects of equilibrium pressure on plasma response to RMPs in a spherical tokamak

This study presents a comprehensive analysis of the equilibrium pressure on the plasma response to resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) in the spherical tokamak (ST) MAST-U, employing both single-fluid and MHD-kinetic hybrid models (implemented via the MARS-F/K codes). As a key finding, the study identifies two different pressure-driven eigenmodes, exhibiting Sturmian property, that affect the Troyon no-wall limits for the onset of the n = 1 and n = 2 ( n is the toroidal mode number) ideal external kink instabilities as well as the corresponding plasma response to the applied RMP. With increasing equilibrium pressure, the plasma response to RMPs is significantly enhanced in the ST plasma, particularly in the high-pressure regime where kinetic effects strongly stabilize the external kink instability. The Troyon no-wall limit divides the plasma response into two regions: well below the limit, the response amplitudes and trends (versus pressure) are similar between the fluid and kinetic models; as the equilibrium pressure approaches the Troyon limit, the kinetic model predicts significant amplification of the RMP field, up to 30 times for cases considered. A relatively weak dependence of the optimal coil phasing on the equilibrium pressure is computed in this ST plasma, similar to the trend obtained for the conventional aspect ratio devices. These findings underscore the importance of incorporating kinetic effects in accurate prediction of the plasma response to RMPs in high-pressure ST tokamak plasmas and provide a theoretical basis for optimizing RMP-based control of the edge-localized modes in future ST devices.

Generation and suppression of runaway electrons in MST tokamak plasmas

This paper discusses the behavior of runaway electrons in tokamak plasmas at low electron density, plasma current, and magnetic field using experimental data from the Madison Symmetric Torus and computational data from the NIMROD nonlinear resistive 3D MHD code. Density thresholds for the onset and suppression of runaway electrons are determined experimentally in steady tokamak plasmas, and in plasmas with a population of runaway electrons, resonant magnetic perturbations with different poloidal mode numbers are applied. Poloidal mode number m = 3 perturbations suppress the runaway electrons, while perturbations with m = 1 have little effect. This difference is consistent with the difference in computed magnetic topologies. The m = 1 RMP has minimal effect on the topology, while the m = 3 RMP produces a broad region of stochasticity, which can allow for rapid loss of the runaway electrons.

Modification of the magneto-hydrodynamic equilibrium by the lower-hybrid wave driven fast electrons on the TST-2 spherical tokamak

Presence of a large population of fast particles may qualitatively modify the tokamak equilibrium from the one that can be described by standard magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD). The kinetic modification of the MHD equilibrium was studied for a lower-hybrid (LH) wave driven plasma on the TST-2 spherical tokamak. The analysis was performed using an equilibrium reconstruction method based on an extended MHD model that considers a two-component plasma of bulk MHD fluid and kinetic fast electrons. Scrape-off-layer current appeared naturally in the extended MHD analysis because of the finite electron orbit excursion from the flux surfaces. This reduced the bulk pressure contribution to the toroidal current substantially. Furthermore, the resulting poloidal flux profile was more consistent with that inferred from the Thomson scattering measurement.

DIII-D research advancing the physics basis for optimizing the tokamak approach to fusion energy

DIII-D physics research addresses critical challenges for the operation of ITER and the next generation of fusion energy devices. This is done through a focus on innovations to provide solutions for high performance long pulse operation, coupled with fundamental plasma physics understanding and model validation, to drive scenario development by integrating high performance core and boundary plasmas. Substantial increases in off-axis current drive efficiency from an innovative top launch system for EC power, and in pressure broadening for Alfven eigenmode control from a co-/counter-I p steerable off-axis neutral beam, all improve the prospects for optimization of future long pulse/steady state high performance tokamak operation. Fundamental studies into the modes that drive the evolution of the pedestal pressure profile and electron vs ion heat flux validate predictive models of pedestal recovery after ELMs. Understanding the physics mechanisms of ELM control and density pumpout by 3D magnetic perturbation fields leads to confident predictions for ITER and future devices. Validated modeling of high-Z shattered pellet injection for disruption mitigation, runaway electron dissipation, and techniques for disruption prediction and avoidance including machine learning, give confidence in handling disruptivity for future devices. For the non-nuclear phase of ITER, two actuators are identified to lower the L–H threshold power in hydrogen plasmas. With this physics understanding and suite of capabilities, a high poloidal beta optimized-core scenario with an internal transport barrier that projects nearly to Q = 10 in ITER at ~8 MA was coupled to a detached divertor, and a near super H-mode optimized-pedestal scenario with co-I p beam injection was coupled to a radiative divertor. The hybrid core scenario was achieved directly, without the need for anomalous current diffusion, using off-axis current drive actuators. Also, a controller to assess proximity to stability limits and regulate β N in the ITER baseline scenario, based on plasma response to probing 3D fields, was demonstrated. Finally, innovative tokamak operation using a negative triangularity shape showed many attractive features for future pilot plant operation.
