A snapshot figure of turbulence driven, space-time fluctuating homoclinic tangle near the magnetic X-point of ITER edge, found for the first time from XGC's INCITE simulation. This space-time fluctuating homoclinic tangle could be the hidden mechanism to connect the plasmas between the burning core and the divertor plasmas, which the fusion researchers have been searching for. Simulation by S. Ku (PPPL). Visualization by D. Pugmire and J. Choi (ORNL)."
The overarching goal of this INCITE project is to create, analyze, publish, and curate a large suite of state-of-the-art long-term 3D core-collapse supernova explosion simulations that will constitute the standard 3D model of core-collapse supernova explosions for years to come.
