主讲人简介

Dr. Xueqiao Xu，get his MS. andPh.D degree from Institute ofPlasma Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China and University of Texas atAustin, TX, United States in 1984 and 1990 respectively. Now he is a Physicistof Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, jointly Guest professor of Physics,Peking University. LLNL Principal Investigator, SciDac project on Tokamak Disruption Simulations. Principal Investigator, International Collaboration Project on BOUT++ . He is a theoretical and computational plasma physicist with general interests in plasma physics, and parallel computing. Specific plasmaphysics experience: particle simulations, continuum simulations, gyro-fluid simulations, fluid simulations, linear and nonlinear theory ofmicro-instabilities, turbulence, transport, and boundary plasma physics.Specific achievements include: (1) Developed the BOUT two-fluid edge turbulencecode; (2) Co-developed the BOUT++ code with University of York; (3) Leadphysics developer for 5D continuum edge gyrokinetic code TEMPEST; (4)Co-invented new Monte Carlo scheme for usual gyro-kinetic particle-in-cellplasma micro-turbulence simulations for modeling Coulomb collisions. 

内容摘要

The aim of the workshop is to provide a comprehensiveintroduction of boundary plasma physics, and computational modelling with anemphasis on fusion plasmas. The critical challenge for fusion development nowadays is how to keep the tokamak core hot and meanwhile the plasma facing components ‘cold’, separating by an extremely narrow boundary plasma region.This lecture will address rising interest in these areas and will in part introduce the breadth and depth of the subject including edge plasma physics,the scrape-off layer physics, plasma-surface interactions in fusion edgeplasmas, and modeling of the plasma edge and materials. The detail arrangement listed in the appendix.
