Fusion Ignition Research Experiment
Understanding the properties of high gain (alpha-dominated) fusion plasmas in an advanced toroidal configuration is the largest remaining open issue that must be addressed to provide the scientific foundation for an attractive magnetic fusion reactor. The critical parts of this science can be obtained in a compact high field tokamak which is also likely to provide the fastest and least expensiv...
متن کاملEvolution of Toroidal Alfvén Eigenmode Instability in Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor
The nonlinear behavior of the Toroidal Alfvén Eigenmode (TAE) driven unstable by energetic ions in the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor (TFTR) [Phys. Plasmas 1, 1560 (1994)] is studied. The evolution of instabilities can take on several scenarios: a single mode or several modes can be driven unstable at the same time, the spectrum can be steady or pulsating and there can be negligible or anomalous l...
متن کاملAvalanche Boron Fusion by Laser Picosecond Block Ignition with Magnetic Trapping for Clean and Economic Reactor
Measured highly elevated gains of proton-boron (HB11) fusion [1] confirmed the exceptional avalanche reaction process [2][3] for combination the non-thermal block ignition using ultrahigh intensity laser pulses of picoseconds duration. The ultrahigh acceleration above 10 20 cm/s 2 for plasma blocks was theoretically and numerically predicted since 1978 [4] and in measured [5] exact agreement [6...
متن کاملFusion Ignition Research Experiment (fire) Magnet System Structural Analyses
The toroidal field coil system of the FIRE tokamak utilizes inertially cooled, copper alloy Bitter plate type magnets which are LN2 cooled between shots. The baseline configuration is wedged. C17510 high strength, high conductivity beryllium copper alloy developed for BPX is proposed for the conductor. These design choices were made after considering a number of alternative structural concepts ...
متن کاملFusion Rate and Superburst Ignition
Observationally inferred superburst ignition depths are shallower than models predict. We address this discrepancy by reexamining the superburst trigger mechanism. We first explore the hypothesis of Kuulkers et al. that exothermic electron captures trigger superbursts. We find that all electron capture reactions are thermally stable in accreting neutron star oceans and thus are not a viable tri...
