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.

This paper describes the initial result of simulation study of neutron production by NBI heating in the GAMMA 10 tandem mirror by using a buildup numerical simulation code. In the GAMMA 10 central-cell, high energy ions have localized in the neutral beam injection port and the other bounce point due to the perpendicular injection. By considering this mechanism, the position of the test zone for neutron irradiation is assumed and the amount of the neutron flux is evaluated. The neutron flux is about 1.3 kW/m2, for high-density mode and about 1.2 kW/m2, for hot-ion mode.
