A striking feature of the collective behavior spherical microswimmers is that for sufficiently strong self-propulsion they phase-separate into a dense cluster coexisting with low-density disordered surrounding. Extending our previous work, we use squirmer as model swimmer and particle-based simulation method multi-particle collision dynamics to explore influence hydrodynamics on their phase in quasi-two-dimensional geometry. The coarsening towards phase-separated state diffusive an...

Abstract We study the effect of turbulent transport in different magnetic configurations Weldenstein 7-X stellarator. In particular, we performed direct numerical simulations with global gyrokinetic code GENE-3D, modeling behavior Ion Temperature Gradient turbulence Standard, High-Mirror and Low-Mirror W7-X. found that configuration produces more than both Standard configurations. By comparison radially local simulations, have demonstrated importance performing non-linear to predict fluxes...

We have developed a tunable source of Mie scale microdroplet aerosols that can be used for the generation energetic ions. To demonstrate this potential, terawatt Ti:Al2O3 laser focused to 2×1019 W/cm2 was irradiate heavy water (D2O) composed micron-scale droplets. Energetic deuterium ions, which were generated in laser-droplet interaction, produced deuterium-deuterium fusion with approximately 2×103 neutrons measured per joule incident energy.

In this paper we follow up on the results from our previous publication [Lobsien J, et al., Nucl.Fus., Vol 58 (2018)106013], where it was found that stellarator coil design optimization can be substantially improved by using a stochastic optimisation approach.In performance quantified lower (better) and more narrow (more robust) distributions of penalty functions at end optimisations.Here, evaluate compare various sets but seek verification deeper understanding physics replacing relatively...

This paper presents the latest results from calculations of nonlinear development instabilities in magneto-plasmadynamic (MPD) thruster flows. Linear instability analysis carried out at Institut fur Raumfahrtsysteme Universitat Stuttgart yielded three basic for stationary MPD flows: a space charge instability, an acoustic wave and electron drift instability. Nonlinear using quasi-analytical method (QAM) developed by authors not only yields these lower orders QAM hierarchy but also shows...

This thesis describes the development and application of GENE-3D, a global gyrokinetic turbulence HPC code for stellarators. The equations as well their implementation use field-aligned coordinates in non-axisymmetric geometries are discussed. GENE-3D is benchmarked validity performance. Different Wendelstein 7-X investigated influence on turbulent properties. Also machine size linear growth rates studied.
