Report on the US-Japan Workshop - Plasma Fueling and Active Particle Control

[摘要] The third in a series of these workshops was held at LLNL as was the first one. In the first workshop 2 years ago, emphasis was on particle fueling and technologies. Last year at Toki, this was augmented by science results involving fueling experiments. This year, much more attention was placed on science, and the subject matter was broadened to include active particle control and the results of experiments attempting to do so. Many interesting papers were presented, and their key results are summarized by the presenters. This summaries follow the agenda for the workshop. Results of the performance in LHD with pellet fueling and higher power heating systems were presented, along with work on a local island divertor and a membrane pump. The new Heliotron J is in operation, a follow-on to Heliotron E at Kyoto. Results of inside launch pellets in JT-60U and DIII-D were given, and particle control in the advanced divertor on DIII-D was described. Modelinq results on core fueling from divertor recycling in DIII-D were given, fueling for Ignitor was described, and fueling studies on GAMMA 10 were presented. A paper was given on particle control for liquid surfaces, and the activities at ORNL on fueling were summarized. CT injection experiments in the Davis Tokamak, and injection of pellets across an external field at Himeji were described. Finally, particle control in SSPX was discussed, and a very nice set of theory papers on self-organization from Univ. of Tokyo was given. They describe a modification to the theory when shear-flows exist, and a two-fluid description is required.
