DIFFER Seminar: Integrated modelling of tokamak plasmas: validation, progress towards fast control-oriented frameworks, and challenges towards ITER operation.

Seminar, to
From [W. Morris JPP colloquium Oct. 2024]
Abstract: Simulation of tokamak plasmas is a multi-physics challenge across multiple timescales. Coupled partial-differential-equations evolve quantities like current, heat, particles and momentum, over entire experiment timescales.

DIFFER Seminar: ITER Tritium breeding test blanket program

Seminar, to
Jaap G. van der Laan
Abstract: The ITER TBM Program, where TBM stands for Test Blanket Module, is a specific research activity within ITER, involving all ITER Members. It is foreseen to install a number of four different Test Blanket Systems, representative for tritium breeding concepts of the concerned ITER members and operate them simultaneously.

DIFFER Seminar: What we can learn about magnetic turbulence from cosmic-ray propagation

Seminar, to
Julia Tjus
Abstract: In the past decade, the field of astroparticle physics has gained momentum through major advancements in theory and observations. From the observational side, the detection of high-energy neutrinos from the cosmos gives a first hint on the origin of cosmic rays. Further.

DIFFER Seminar: Hydrogen for Heat and Power: Burning questions

Seminar, to
Jeroen van Oijen
Abstract: In the context of decarbonization of hard-to-abate energy-intensive sectors, green hydrogen emerges as a promising alternative fuel, which allows long-term energy storage from intermittent renewable sources and can be consumed without emitting carbon dioxide.
