Five members of our Fusion Group participated in the 5th Severo Ochoa Doctoral Symposium<\/a><\/strong> organized on the 24th and 25th of April 2018 at Barcelona Supercomputing Center. Three members, i.e. Allah Rakha<\/strong>, Edgar Olivares<\/strong> and Dani Gallart,<\/strong> had a chance to give oral presentations while Marc Fuster<\/strong> presented a poster and volunteered together with our newest group member Alba Gord\u00f3<\/strong> to help in its organization. The main goal of the event is to provide a framework for young researchers to share their research results<\/strong> and to improve communication skills.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Symposium started with the Keynote Talk “Quantum Disruption” <\/em>by Professor Jose Ignacio Latorre<\/strong> and included tutorial sessions on “How to become rich following an academic career”<\/em> and “Marie Curie Individual Fellowships: Info and Best Practices<\/em>“.<\/p>\n

Doctoral student Allah Rakha<\/strong>, from our fusion group, presented his work “Modelling of Alfv\u00e9nic instabilities in complex toroidal magnetic geometries for fusion”<\/em>. In this work, he investigates the Alfv\u00e9nic instabilities in the\u00a0 flexible TJ-II heliac located at\u00a0 the CIEMAT Laboratorio Nacional de Fusi\u00f3n (LNF)<\/a> in Madrid. Alfv\u00e9nic instabilities play an important role on the current experimental findings.<\/p>\n

Edgar Olivares<\/strong> presented his work “Robust point-location method for linear and high order meshes. Application to particle transport”. <\/em>His work is intended to reduce the computational effort needed to locate a point in a certain mesh. This technique is very important for problems with a large amount of particles to keep track of such as Computational Fluid Dynamics.<\/p>\n

Doctoral student Dani Gallart<\/strong>, from our fusion group, presented his work “On the quest to reach nuclear fusion as a future energy source” <\/em> where he explained how the ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF) waves are used to heat plasma.<\/p>\n

Our undergraduate student, Marc Fuster,<\/strong> presented his poster “Application of the edge-based finite element method for fusion plasma simulations” <\/em>where he studies the potential of the geophysical code PETGEM for fusion plasma physics.<\/p>\n
