A baffled snowflake minus low-field side (SF-LFS) is geometrically-optimised in tokamak a` configuration variable, increasing divertor neutral pressure, to evaluate the roles of divertor closure (comparing with an unbaffled SF-LFS) and magnetic geometry (c ...
Fusion occurs when light nuclei combine to form heavier nuclei. The energy released in this process powers the stars and can provide humankind with a safe, sustainable, and clean source of baseload electricity, a valuable tool in the fight against climate ...
The ITER Heating Neutral Beam (HNB) source prototype SPIDER (Source for the Production of Ions of Deuterium Extracted from a Radio frequency plasma), hosted at the Neutral Beam Test Facility (NBTF) in Padova, Italy, has recently started operating with evap ...
Radial electric fields up to similar to 4 kV m(-1) are observed in the boundary between the private flux region (PFR) and the scrape-off layer (SOL) driving E X B drifts between the inner and outer targets at speeds up to 2.8 km s(-1) in the Tokamak a conf ...
