Simulations by Evgeniia Ponomareva and Andrea Sand at Aalto University on the EUROfusion supercomputer Marconi may be good news for material lifetimes in future fusion power plants. The clouds of light electrons 💫 in those materials may have the stopping power to lessen the impact by fast particles from the fusion plasma: https://lnkd.in/e9gKEPyX #science #modelling #road2fusion #fusionenergy

Dr Tim Happel has been a Scientific Member of the Max Planck Society and Director at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) in Garching near Munich since 1 July 2024. His new ‘Plasma Dynamics’ division at IPP will start on 1 September and will focus on dynamic processes in fusion plasmas. His team will be closely involved in the operation and diagnostic development of the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak facility. ASDEX Upgrade is one of the key experiments in worldwide nuclear fusion research and plays a central role with regard to the next-generation tokamak, ITER, which is currently under construction. What dynamic processes take place in the plasma core, at the plasma edge and near the wall of fusion devices? And what are their consequences? These are central questions in Dr Happel's research work. By gaining a better understanding of these phenomena, the physicist hopes to develop and understand plasma discharge scenarios that will optimise the efficiency of future fusion reactors. Tim Happel's team will also investigate the influence of fluctuations on particle and energy transport in fusion experiments. This work will serve to reduce heat losses in plasmas and minimise the load on the wall material. In order to gain new insights into the dynamic plasma processes, Dr Happel also wants to carry out comparative experiments at Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X). W7-X is operated at the Greifswald branch of IPP and is the largest and most efficient stellarator in the world. The IPP theory departments will also be involved in this project with numerical simulations. The interplay between experiment and simulation should pave the way for reliable predictions for future fusion experiments and reactors. === Tim Happel was born in Gießen in 1980 and studied physics at the Christian Albrechts University in Kiel from 2000 to 2006. During his diploma thesis, he gained his first experience in fusion research at the TJ-K stellarator. He worked on the characterisation of microinstabilities at the transition from closed to open field lines. Dr Happel completed his doctorate at the Spanish fusion research laboratory at CIEMAT in Madrid, where TJ-II, the second largest stellarator in the world, is operated. There he developed a Doppler backscattering system which enabled him to successfully observe plasma flows and their interaction with turbulent structures. Tim Happel was awarded the Itoh Prize for Plasma Turbulence for this work. After completing his doctorate, Tim Happel moved to the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics in Garching in 2011, where he continued his research into plasma flows at the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak. In this context, he has headed the turbulence research group since 2023. At IPP, he extended his studies to tokamak operation modes with increased energy confinement. In particular, he intensively investigates the Improved Energy Confinement Mode (I-Mode) and plasmas with negative triangularity. #fusionenergy #nuclearfusion

The Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator (LIPAc) gets ready to break new ground As part of the 🇪🇺 🇯🇵 Broader Approach agreement, Fusion for Energy (F4E) and National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST) are developing LIPAc, a demonstrator for future facilities testing fusion materials like IFMIF-DONES. The teams recently closed a successful round of beam operations at LIPAc and are now preparing its final configuration, with a new Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) section. Thanks to the accumulated know-how and design improvements, LIPAc will move to current levels and duty cycles never reached before.🚀 F4E provided most of the prototype’s sub-systems, in collaboration with research institutes like Commissariat a l'Energie Atomique et aux Energies Alternatives, INFN, CIEMAT and SCK CEN, together with EUROfusion.🤝 📰 Read the news: https://t.ly/oyzrp #fusion #energy #accelerator #innovation #research #beam #physics #collaboration

Consorzio RFX announces the launch of RIDE 4 FUSION 2024, an incredible mix of itinerant scientific outreach and a bike journey from Padua (NBI Test Facility) to Cadarache (ITER Organization) to promote the future of clean energy harnessing the energy of the sun: fusion energy! Ride4Fusion will start on 10 September, organized in collaboration between ITER Organization and Consorzio RFX and will be accompanied during the journey by researchers, enthusiasts and sponsors that promote and spread fusion science. For 10 exciting days, researchers, students, workers and sponsors will share personal motivations, stories and careers, all while promoting and spreading the word about fusion science in special events at the different stages. FuseNet has adhered to this initiative, so we encourage all interested students and fusion enthusiasts to join this cycling journey at any stage and we hope to see you at the finish line at ITER IO on 19 September.

Congratulations to Mikhail Maslov and all the other EUROfusion researchers involved! This excellent paper shows how EUROfusion researchers used the fusion machine JET (Joint European Torus) at UKAEA to set a new world record in fusion energy in 2021. Fusion researchers from across Europe spent years to devise the best way to push JET to a record 59 megajoules of energy released from fusion reactions! 🍩☀️📈 #DTE2 #fusionenergy #fusionworldrecord #road2fusion #fusionineurope #Euratom UK Atomic Energy Authority | Laboratory for Plasma Physics - ERM/KMS | Consorzio RFX | CEA IRFM | Institute of Plasma Physics and Laser Microfusion | Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche | Uppsala University | Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics | CIEMAT | Swiss Plasma Center at EPFL | Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca | ENEA | DTU - Technical University of Denmark | Lithuanian Energy Institute
