Call for papers

Contributions to any of the following topics are welcome:


BASIC EDGE PLASMA THEORY

• Magnetic boundary structure including magnetic stochasticity and sheath effects

• Edge transport parallel and perpendicular to magnetic field, electric field effects, instabilities and turbulence

• Atomic physics including neutrals, multi-charge ions, and radiation

• Plasma detachment including cold and dense buffer plasmas

• New edge-relevant numerical and computational methods


MODELS OF SPECIAL PHENOMENA AND EDGE CONTROL

• Hot spots, radiative cooling

• L-H transition, blobs, ELMs (including control), and pedestal structure

• Flow patterns, momentum transport, and impurity retention, biasing and shaping of targets

• Dusty effects


INTEGRATED EDGE PLASMA MODELING

• Kinetic and Monte Carlo codes, multi-fluid codes

• Effects of plasma edge/core coupling and plasma-material interactions

• Validation of edge plasma theories
