The object of this review is to summarize the achievements of research on the Alcator C-Mod
tokamak [Hutchinson et al., Phys. Plasmas 1, 1511 (1994) and Marmar, Fusion Sci. Technol …

The question of size of a tokamak fusion reactor is central to current fusion research
especially with the large device, ITER, under construction and even larger DEMO reactors …

An improved energy confinement regime, I-mode, is studied in Alcator C-Mod, a compact
high-field divertor tokamak using ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRFs) auxiliary …

Transport scaling with respect to device size in magnetically confined plasmas is critically
examined for electrostatic ion-temperature-gradient turbulence using global gyrokinetic …

Plasma equilibria reconstructed from the Mega-Amp Spherical Tokamak have sufficient
resolution to capture plasma evolution during the short period between edge-localized …

Extensive lithium wall coatings and liquid lithium plasma-limiting surfaces reduce recycling,
with dramatic improvements in Ohmic plasma discharges in the Current Drive Experiment …

We report an observation of robust suppression of edge-localized modes (ELMs) in the
Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST), enabled by continuous boron …

Demonstration of DEMO relevant fusion power (Pfus) level and tritium self-sufficiency are
two important goals of the China fusion engineering testing reactor (CFETR). In this work the …

In this tutorial article, we review the technological, physics, and economic basis for a
magnetic fusion device utilizing a flowing liquid lithium divertor (molten metal velocity in the …

This paper reviews transport and confinement in spherical tokamaks (STs) and our current
physics understanding of this that is partly based on gyrokinetic simulations. Equilibrium flow …
