RF wave simulation for cold edge plasmas using the MFEM library

RF wave simulation for cold edge plasmas using the MFEM library

A newly developed generic electro-magnetic (EM) simulation tool for modeling RF wave propagation in SOL plasmas is presented. The primary motivation of this development is to extend the domain partitioning approach for incorporating arbitrarily shaped SOL plasmas and antenna to the TORIC core ICRF s...
