ARC: A compact, high-field, fusion nuclear science facility and demonstration power plant with demountable magnets
Brandon Sorbom,Justin Ball,Timothy R. Palmer,F. J. Mangiarotti,J. M. Sierchio,Paul Bonoli,C.P. Kasten,D.A. Sutherland,Harold Barnard,Christian Bernt Haakonsen,J. Goh,Choongki Sung,Dennis G. Whyte +12 more
TL;DR: The robust, robust, compact (ARC) as discussed by the authors is the product of a conceptual design study aimed at reducing the size, cost and complexity of a combined fusion nuclear science facility (FNSF) and demonstration fusion Pilot power plant.

TL;DR: The Alcator C-Mod tokamak as discussed by the authors is a high-field toroidal confinement device that uses high-power radio frequency (RF) waves for heating and current drive with innovative launching structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluctuating zonal flows in the I-mode regime in Alcator C-Moda)
Istvan Cziegler,Patrick Diamond,Nicolas Fedorczak,P. Manz,George Tynan,M. Xu,Randy Michael Churchill,A.E. Hubbard,Bruce Lipschultz,J. M. Sierchio,J.L. Terry,Christian Theiler +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a gas-puff-imaging based time-delay-estimate velocity inference algorithm, and showed that geodesic-acoustic modes (GAM) are ubiquitous in all I-mode discharges examined to date.
Journal ArticleDOI
Debris Disks around Solar-Type Stars: Observations of the Pleiades with Spitzer Space Telescope
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of binarity and X-ray activity on the excess flux of solar-type stars in the Pleiades cluster were analyzed, and it was shown that stars with warm excesses tend not to be in equal-mass binary systems, possibly due to clearing of planetesimals by binary companions in similar orbits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations of the I-mode high confinement regime and comparisons with experimenta)
Anne White,Nathan Howard,Alexander Creely,M. Chilenski,Martin Greenwald,Amanda Hubbard,Jerry Hughes,Earl Marmar,J. E. Rice,J. M. Sierchio,Choongki Sung,J.R. Walk,D.G. Whyte,D. R. Mikkelsen,Eric Edlund,C. Kung,Christopher Holland,Jeff Candy,C.C. Petty,Matthew Reinke,Christian Theiler +20 more
TL;DR: In this article, nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations of I-mode plasmas are performed and compared with experiment and the results show that Imode core ion temperature and electron temperature profiles are more stiff than L-mode core plasms.
