INL’s Teton supercomputer open for business
Idaho National Laboratory has brought its newest high‑performance supercomputer, named Teton, online and made it available to users through the Department of Energy’s Nuclear Science User Facilities program. The system, now the flagship machine in the lab’s Collaborative Computing Center, quadruples INL’s total computing capacity and enters service as the 85th fastest supercomputer in the world.

A new high-speed camera (MEMRECAM GX-1, NAC Inc.) has been installed at the GAMMA 10 central-cell. This camera observes two directions through vertical and horizontal ports by using dual optical fiber bundles. This paper describes the results of 2-D image of visible emission observed from the central-cell plasma during Supersonic Molecular Beam injection (SMBI) in the C-ECRH experiments. Observational results showed that the instability of plasma light-emission on the central-limiter was suppressed during SMBI and the plasma sustainability increased along the SMBI plenum pressure. Relationship between plasma sustainability and power of C-ECRH and/or the quantity of SMBI is also investigated.
