Global 'zero particle flux-driven' gyrokinetic analysis of the density profile for a TCV plasma

Olivier Sauter, Stephan Brunner, Gabriele Merlo, Alberto Mariani

The tokamak `a configuration variable (TCV) is a small-sized tokamak, where finite size effects (often called 'rho-star' or 'global' effects) could significantly impact the heat and particle fluxes, leading to discrepancies between gyrokinetic flux-tube re ...

Quantum engineering and detection of advanced radiation beams

Veronica Leccese

Controlling and shaping radiation beams is fundamental for a better understanding of radiation-matter interaction and advancing experimental techniques for material characterization at high spatial resolution. In particular, the current trend in the miniat ...

Alignment & stability challenges for FCC-ee

Léon Van Riesen-Haupt

In order to achieve its ultra-low vertical emittance (1 pm) and high luminosity (of up to 230 x 10(34) cm(-2) s(-1) per collision point), the e(+)e(-) Future Circular Collider (FCC-ee) requires a well-informed alignment strategy, powerful correction method ...

Influence of Sphericity on Surface Termination of Icosahedral Colloidal Clusters

Esther Amstad

Colloids self-organize into icosahedral clusters composed of a Mackay core and an anti-Mackay shell under spherical confinement to minimize the free energy. This study explores the variation of surface arrangements of colloids in icosahedral clusters, focu ...

Preliminary safety analysis of the TRANSMUTEX sub-critical reactor using the GeN-Foam multi-physics solver

Andreas Pautz, Carlo Fiorina, Thomas Arthur Louis Joseph Guilbaud

This work presents a preliminary safety analysis of the accelerator-driven system under development at TRANSMUTEX. It is a sub-critical lead-cooled fast reactor with a nominal power of 300 MWth having the following features: (1) an inert-matrix fuel; (2) a ...

Splitting probabilities and mean first-passage times across multiple thresholds of jump-and-drift transition paths

Paolo Perona, Giulio Calvani

We apply the stochastic-trajectory analysis to derive exact expressions for the mean first passage times of jump-and-drift transition paths across two or more consecutive thresholds. We perform the analysis of the crossing statistics in terms of dimensionl ...

Excitation of toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes with counter-current NBI in the TCV tokamak

Laurie Porte, Alexander Karpushov, Matteo Vallar, Samuele Mazzi

In TCV, unstable modes excited by resonant interaction between the shear Alfvèn waves in con- tinuum gaps and energetic particles have been observed in scenarios with Neutral Beam Injection (NBI). TCV is a middle-size device (R 0 /a = 0.88/0.25) equipped w ...

Progress and prospects in nonlinear extreme-ultraviolet and X-ray optics and spectroscopy

Majed Chergui

Free-electron lasers and high-harmonic-generation table-top systems are new sources of extreme-ultraviolet to hard X-ray photons, providing ultrashort pulses that are intense, coherent and tunable. They are enabling a broad range of nonlinear optical and s ...

Local gyrokinetic simulations of tokamaks with non-uniform magnetic shear

Stephan Brunner, Justin Richard Ball

In this work, we modify the standard flux tube simulation domain to include arbitrary ion gyroradius-scale variation in the radial profile of the safety factor. To determine how to appropriately include such a modification, we add a strong ion gyroradius-s ...

The Microphysics of Stratiform Precipitation During OLYMPEX: Compatibility Between Triple-Frequency Radar and Airborne In Situ Observations

Jussi Sakari Leinonen

The link between stratiform precipitation microphysics and multifrequency radar observables is thoroughly investigated by exploiting simultaneous airborne radar and in situ observations collected from two aircraft during the OLYMPEX/RADEX (Olympic Mountain ...

Search for neutrino-induced particle showers with IceCube-40

Matthias Wolf, Mark Tobin, Xiaoxia Bai, Mathieu Ribordy, Shirit Cohen

We report on the search for neutrino-induced particle showers, so-called cascades, in the IceCube-40 detector. The data for this search were collected between April 2008 and May 2009 when the first 40 IceCube strings were deployed and operational. Three co ...
