Fusion plasma theory. Task 3: ECRH and transport modeling in tandem mirrors and divertor physics
Abstract
The research performed under Tank II of this contact has focused on: (1) the coupling of an ECRH ray tracing and absorption code to a tandem mirror transport code in order to self-consistently model the temporal and spatial evolution of the plasma, and (2) the further development of semi-analytical models for plasma flow in divertors and pumped limiters. Work on these topics is briefly summarized.
