The 'neutron deficit' in the JET tokamak

Henri Weisen, Mikhail Maslov

The measured D-D neutron rate of neutral beam heated JET baseline and hybrid H-modes in deuterium is found to be between approximately 50% and 100% of the neutron rate expected from the TRANSP code, depending on the plasma parameters. A number of candidate ...

Signatures of the Primordial Universe from Its Emptiness: Measurement of Baryon Acoustic Oscillations from Minima of the Density Field

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Cheng Zhao

Sound waves from the primordial fluctuations of the Universe imprinted in the large-scale structure, called baryon acoustic oscillations (BAOs), can be used as standard rulers to measure the scale of the Universe. These oscillations have already been detec ...

The Sdss-Iv Extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: Overview And Early Data

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Cheng Zhao, Anand Stéphane Raichoor, David Schlegel, Timothée Guy Olivier Delubac, Zheng Zheng

In a six-year program started in 2014 July, the Extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS) will conduct novel cosmological observations using the BOSS spectrograph at Apache Point Observatory. These observations will be conducted simultaneous ...

Dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization of deuterated molecules enhanced by cross-polarization

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Estel Canet Martinez

We present novel means to hyperpolarize deuterium nuclei in (CD2)-C-13 groups at cryogenic temperatures. The method is based on cross-polarization from H-1 to C-13 and does not require any radio-frequency fields applied to the deuterium nuclei. After rapid ...

Carbon and nitrogen abundances of individual stars in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy

Pascale Jablonka, Carmela Lardo

We present [C/Fe] and [N/Fe] abundance ratios and CH(lambda 4300) and S(lambda 3883) index measurements for 94 red giant branch (RGB) stars in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy from VLT/VIMOS MOS observations at a resolving power R = 1150 at 4020 A. Thi ...

Assessment of Neutron Production in Neutral Beam Injector of TCV Tokamak

Alexander Karpushov

Neutral beam (NB) injector for the TCV tokamak has been designed to produce a deuterium beam with energy 30 keV, equivalent current up to 50 A, and pulse duration 2 s. The injector operation is accompanied by generation of fast neutrons produced in deuteri ...

The last stages of star formation in the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Sextans

Romaine Theler

This thesis is anchored in the research of better understanding of the chemical evolution of galaxies. Many dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSph) are orbiting the Milky Way displaying various star formation histories. The formation of these dwarf galaxies and t ...

The Higgs boson and cosmology

Mikhail Chapochnikov

I will discuss how the Higgs field of the Standard Model may have played an important role in cosmology, leading to the homogeneity, isotropy and flatness of the Universe; producing the quantum fluctuations that seed structure formation; triggering the rad ...
