Method speeds up TDDFT calculations for XRTS analysis
What the study found The study found a broadly applicable method for improving the efficiency of time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations used to model X-ray Thomson scattering (XRTS) and related dynamic material properties. The authors report speed-ups of up to an order of magnitude without introducing any significant bias. Why the authors say this…

Predictive gyrokinetic simulations matched TCV edge-plasma data
Fully predictive gyrokinetic simulations of tokamak edge turbulence using Gkeyll validate against TCV experiments and reveal how negative triangularity enhances confinement through E×B flow shear.
