Sawtooth Models
24/11/14 Transp Neutrons … 5/11
Including a sawtooth model in Transp might reduce the total neutron rate, by mixing hot ions from the plasma core with lower energy ions at larger radius ?
Kadomtsev model: Runs J03,J04. Neutron spike follows 1st sawtooth time in both cases. Not quite physical ?

Sawtooth – Kad. model
24/11/14 Transp Neutrons … 6/11
Plasma profiles before (red) & after the 1st sawtooth;Q(0) > 1. is the KM constraint; Te(0) is halved

Sawtooth – Kad. & Por. models
24/11/14 Transp Neutrons … 7/11
Plasma axis variables, J05 (Kad.) & J06 (Por).; ‘Island width’ parameter 0.5no change to total neutrons – except the unphysical spikee

Telescope profiles
24/11/14 Transp Neutrons … 8/11
Telescope Profiles for data & J06 (Porcelli, Fp=0.5), averaged over 5 timepoints.

Telescope ‘Centrality’:
24/11/14 Transp Neutrons … 9/11
𝐶𝑣 = 𝑅𝑖5
𝑖=3 𝑅𝑖9
𝑖=1൙ , 𝐶ℎ = 𝑅𝑖16
𝑖=14 𝑅𝑖19
𝑖=10൙ and 𝐶𝑡=൭ 𝑅𝑖5
𝑖=3 + 𝑅𝑖16
𝑖=14 ൱ 𝑅𝑖19𝑖=1൙
Statistics on individual telescopes are challenging, so define ‘Centrality’ Cx = Peak/All, for vertical, horizontal & all T/s :-
(Can be calculated in jetdsp – form cumulative integral over telescope axis)

Centrality & Sawteeth
24/11/14 Transp Neutrons … 10/11
Black Data
Blue J02 No sawtooth model
Pink J05 Kadomtsev model
Green J06 Porcelli, Fp = 0.5
Red J07 Porcelli, Fp = 0.66
The data is more central than any Transp run, both at and between the sawteeth
Transp shows some sawtooth structure, even if no sawtooth model is invoked (run J02)
The Kadomtsev model gives a sawtooth behaviour of comparable magnitude to the data
The Porcelli model produces smaller sawtooth, and is not very sensitive to the island size parameter (Fp).
All Transp runs give a similar telescope profile between sawteeth
‘Centrality’ for alltelescopes

Conclusions
24/11/14 Transp Neutrons … 11/11
Total Neutron flux predictions remain a problem Neutron Telescope rates are reproduced quite well Neither Sawtooth model helps the Neutron predictions
(between sawteeth) Kadomtsev model reproduces the telescope ratios better,
but introduces artifacts in the total neutron distribution Porcelli model doesn’t reproduce the telescope ratios as well
as Kadomtsev( Based on a limited number of runs, on a single shot. Altering other settings may improve the results )
