    • Examination of stiff ion temperature gradient mode physics in simulations of DIII-D H-mode transport 

      Holland, C.; Luce, T.; Grierson, B.A.; Smith, S.P.; Marinoni, Alessandro; e.a. (IOP, 2021-05)
      A systematic evaluation of gyrokinetic and gyrofluid model predictions of ion temperature gradient (ITG) stability and transport using parameters from DIII-D high confinement mode (H-mode) plasmas has been performed. The ...

    • Shattered pellet penetration in low and high energy plasmas on DIII-D 

      Raman, R.; Sweeney, Ryan; Moyer, R.A.; Eidietis, N.W.; Shiraki, D.; e.a. (IOP, 2020-02)
      Shattered pellet injection (SPI) has been adopted as the baseline disruption mitigation system for ITER, as the radiative payload penetration into DIII-D plasmas from SPI is superior to those using the massive gas injection ...

    • Deficiencies in compression and yield in x-ray-driven implosions 

      Thomas, C.A.; Campbell, E.M.; Baker, K.L.; Casey, D.T.; Hohenberger, M.; e.a. (AIP, 2018-07)
      This paper analyzes x-ray–driven implosions that are designed to be less sensitive to 2-D and 3-D effects in hohlraum and capsule physics. Key performance metrics including the burn-averaged ion temperature, hot-spot areal ...
