We review boundary conditions for both fixed and free boundary solutions and under what circumstances a sheet current may exist at the plasma-vacuum interface. We develop an efficient and accurate algorithm for computing the residual of these boundary conditions and use it to compute free boundary equilibria in the DESC code both in vacuum and at finite plasma beta, with and without sheet currents.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2412.05680v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2412.05680v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"high-order-free-boundary-mhd-equilibria-in","repo_url":"https://github.com/plasmacontrol/desc","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
