- Understand experimental results relating to transport and confinement, e.g. observed confinement scalings, impurity accumulation, variations in observed plasma performance.
- Perform core-edge coupled simulations with JINTRAC.
Requirements
- PhD-level knowledge of tokamak physics or equivalent work experience.
- Experience and knowledge of physics integrated modelling.
Desirable Skills
- Experience and knowledge of at least one area of tokamak plasma modelling, one or more of:
- Core turbulent transport models (quasilinear and/or gyrokinetic/gyrofluid codes).
- Edge plasma transport or plasma exhaust transport modelling.
- Heating and current drive, particle sources.
- MHD / ELM / pedestal modelling.
- Demonstrated programming skills in Python, C, and Fortran.
