Rapid Vacuum Response Calculations for Non-axisymmetric Plasma Geometries

The authors developed a fast, open-source calculation for vacuum response matrices and surface inductance in complex, non-axisymmetric geometries. They extended an existing code using a high-order singularity correction scheme and field-period symmetry. This allows for efficient calculations of free boundary ideal MHD stability and perturbed equilibrium in stellarators.
