Of all electrons, runaway electrons have long been recognized in the fusion community as a
distinctive population. They now attract special attention as a part of ITER mission …

Information theory provides an interdisciplinary method to understand important phenomena
in many research fields ranging from astrophysical and laboratory fluids/plasmas to …

Nuclear fusion power delivered by magnetic-confinement tokamak reactors holds the
promise of sustainable and clean energy. The avoidance of large-scale plasma instabilities …

Nuclear fusion is one of the most attractive alternatives to carbon-dependent energy
sources. Harnessing energy from nuclear fusion in a large reactor scale, however, still …

For stable and efficient fusion energy production using a tokamak reactor, it is essential to
maintain a high-pressure hydrogenic plasma without plasma disruption. Therefore, it is …

Data-driven science and technology offer transformative tools and methods to science. This
review article highlights the latest development and progress in the interdisciplinary field of …

A disruption prediction algorithm, called disruption prediction using random forests (DPRF),
has run in real-time in the DIII-D plasma control system (PCS) for more than 900 discharges …

This book bridges the gap between general plasma physics lectures and the real world
problems in MHD stability. In order to support the understanding of concepts and their …

Theoretical guidance is needed on two disruption questions:(1) When is a tokamak
operating in a metastable state in which loss of control is credible (avoidance question)?(2) …

In this work the onset of tearing modes in the termination phase of plasma pulses on JET is
investigated. It is shown that the broadening or the shrinking of the current density profile, as …
