The presence of impurity ions in magnetically confined plasmas can significantly influence micro-instabilities, impacting cross-field transport and ultimately affecting fusion performance. In particular, Parallel Velocity Gradient (PVG) instability, common ...

This paper describes the first vertical electron cyclotron emission measurement of non-thermal electron distributions in the Tokamak à Configuration Variable. These measurements were conducted in runaway electron scenarios and in the presence of electron c ...

The European DEMO (EU-DEMO) reactor studies within EUROfusion aim to develop a fusion power plant concept. The large tokamak device needs an auxiliary heating power which, at the present stage, is provided by the Electron Cyclotron (EC) heating system with ...

Resonant antennas are increasingly employed by the plasma industry, and the theory has now developed alongside the technological applications to the extent that it is timely to document the progress in this field to aid antenna design for future novel RF p ...

Source for the production of ions of deuterium extracted from a radio frequency plasma (SPIDER) is the full-scale prototype for the ITER heating neutral beam (HNB) source. Beam operation in SPIDER, with the eventual aim of achieving 100-keV, 46-A hydrogen ...

In this paper we analyze fast ion motion in the divertor tokamak test (DTT) device (Albanese et al 2017 Nucl. Fusion 57 016010). It is planned that DTT will be heated through a mix of 45 MW heating power, including 15 MW negative-ion-based neutral beam hea ...

When an object is accelerated in a fluid, a primary vortex is formed through the roll-up of a shear layer. This primary vortex does not grow indefinitely and will reach a limiting size and strength. Additional vorticity beyond the critical limit will end u ...
