Description:Massive Ray Tracing in Fusion Plasma

Abstract:Plasma heating in magnetic confinement fusion devices can be performed by launching a microwave beam with frequency in the range of the cyclotron frequency of either ions or electrons, or close to one of their harmonics. The Electron Cyclotron Resonance Heating (ECRH) is characterized by the small size of the wavelength that allows one to study the wave properties using the geometrical optics approximations. This means that the microwave beam can be simulated by a large amount of rays. Being all the ray computations independent, this problem is well suited to be solved in the grid relying on the EGEE infrastructure. The framework has been implemented using the standard DRMAA API provided by GridWay.
