At LTCalcoli, we have developed experience in numerical plasma analysis for applications in fusion reactors, integrating decades of expertise in computational physics with plasma simulation capabilities. We have built competencies in predictive modeling and simulation of complex plasma phenomena, with specific expertise in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equilibrium, disruption dynamics, and the transfer of plasma evolution–induced excitations to electromagnetic analyses.

What Is Plasma Analysis?

Plasma analysis consists of the use of numerical techniques and simulation tools to model the behavior of ionized gases under the influence of electromagnetic fields, fluid dynamics, and thermal effects. Plasmas are often described as the “fourth state of matter”: a collection of charged particles whose collective behavior is governed by both electromagnetic interactions and fluid dynamics.

Accurate numerical plasma analysis requires the solution of coupled systems of equations such as MHD models, particle kinetics, and field equations to predict time-dependent phenomena.
