  2. Research plans and needs for this year (FY2014) in preparation for NSTX-U operations in FY2015 • Formulation of ion damping in TORIC • interaction with high/intermediate harmonic fast waves. • Benchmark with AORSA. • Interaction of fast waves with neutral beam generated ions • non-Maxwellian distributions (Nicola Bertelli). • Advantages of using TORIC • coupled to TRANSP; • parallel implementation; • fast turn around.

  3. Research Plans for FY2015 beyond(The years covered will depend on the duration of your present grant) • Coordinate with experimental plans. • Time dependent simulations • Scenario modeling • High/intermediate harmonic waves for startup operations • heat electrons; • raise plasma β; • increase bootstrap current. • Sensitivity of wave coupling to • plasma parameters; • plasma positioning • modeling of the scrape-off layer. • Effect of edge fluctuations.

  4. Ideas to enhance participation in NSTX-U research/program by U.S. Universities, early-career researchers, and students • Financial commitment • 5-7 years. • Long term vision.
