Particles Analysis and Visualization• Goal

– To supply tools to facilitate the study the affects of turbulence on the trapping state and radial diffusion of particles. Outward radial diffusion is heat transport which is bad.

• Deployed 1.12.2• Querying based visualization

– Hardening integration of Fastbit into VisIt. Converters and indexing tools for GTC and XGC Data Readers – H5Part and HDUF

– Hardening of VisIt to supper Queries and Particles Interface for Persistent Particals

– Two remaining efforts Interface for query selection Cumulative queries

Magnetic Island Analysis and Visualization• Goal

– Visualizing the magnetic field topology is necessary to the understanding how the plasma energy is deposited on the material wall. Energy (i.e. heat) on the wall is bad.

• Deployed 1.12.2• Topological analysis of the magnetic field

– Hardening of streamline code Ability to continue streamline integration Ability to add additional seeds

– Hardening of analysis code Adaptive streamline length Addition of more robust O point detection

– Integration of M3D C1 Elements Ability to visualize scalar/vector data Construct Poincaré plots.

Comparative Visualization Cont.

Experiment to Simulation• Synthetic diagnostics

– Experimental Data stored in MDSplus Ability to get not only data but physical geometry

– Requires MDSplus interface within VisIt

– Ability perform integration of simulation data.– Use cases might require custom queries.
