The paper presents a probabilistic neural surrogate for scrape‑off‑layer (SOL) plasma simulations in tokamaks. By mapping the curvilinear SOLPS‑ITER mesh to three fixed‑size image tensors, the authors preserve geometric adjacency and enable a convolutional network to process the mesh without loss of information. A conditional flow‑matching model is trained on this representation, producing efficient, scalable predictions that capture multiple plausible outcomes—such as distinct hot and cold modes—near the divertor detachment transition and correctly recover known bifurcations in synthetic data.

Fast surrogates for tokamak boundary-plasma simulation are typically deterministic regressors mapping a global operating point to a flattened vector of cell values. Near the divertor detachment transi...
IGNITE is a generative world foundation model designed to simulate fusion plasma behavior in the DIII‑D National Fusion Facility. Trained in a self‑supervised way on more than a decade of unlabeled experimental data, its core dynamics model can predict entire discharges from specified actuator trajectories, which may be supplied or generated from textual prompts or desired outcomes. The architecture uses spatio‑temporal tokenizers for diverse input modalities—time‑series measurements, image sequences, and high‑resolution spectrograms—feeding an auto‑regressive backbone that can forecast discharges over an infinite horizon.
