Plasmoid drift and first wall heat deposition during ITER H-mode dual-SPIs in JOREK simulations

Mengdi Kong

The heat flux mitigation during the thermal quench (TQ) by the shattered pellet injection (SPI) is one of the major elements of disruption mitigation strategy for ITER. It's efficiency greatly depends on the SPI and the target plasma parameters, and is ult ...

Light absorption by brown carbon over the South-East Atlantic Ocean

Athanasios Nenes

Biomass burning emissions often contain brown carbon (BrC), which represents a large family of light-absorbing organics that are chemically complex, thus making it difficult to estimate their absorption of incoming solar radiation, resulting in large uncer ...

Intensification of sub-daily rainfall extremes in a low-rise urban area

Gabriele Manoli

Short-duration extreme rainfall events are the main trigger of flash and pluvial floods in cities. Depending on the local climate zone and urban fabric that affect meteorological variables such as air temperature, humidity, and aerosol concentration, the b ...

Climate change now detectable from any single day of weather at global scale

For generations, climate scientists have educated the public that 'weather is not climate', and climate change has been framed as the change in the distribution of weather that slowly emerges from large variability over decades(1-7). However, weather when ...

Atmospheric evolution of molecular-weight-separated brown carbon from biomass burning

Athanasios Nenes, Kalliopi Violaki

Biomass burning is a major source of atmospheric brown carbon (BrC), and through its absorption of UV/VIS radiation, it can play an important role in the planetary radiative balance and atmospheric photochemistry. The considerable uncertainty of BrC impact ...

Importance of the advection scheme for the simulation of water isotopes over Antarctica by atmospheric general circulation models: A case study for present-day and Last Glacial Maximum with LMDZ-iso

Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon

Atmospheric general circulation models (AGCMs) are known to have a warm and isotopically enriched bias over Antarctica. We test here the hypothesis that these biases are partly consequences of a too diffusive advection. Exploiting the LMDZ-iso model, we sh ...

Physical effects of thermal pollution in lakes

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard

Anthropogenic heat emissions into inland waters influence water temperature and affect stratification, heat and nutrient fluxes, deep water renewal, and biota. Given the increased thermal stress on these systems by growing cooling demands of riparian/coast ...

Radiative characterization of random fibrous media with optically large long cylindrical fibers

Sophia Haussener

Radiative heat transfer is analyzed in participating media consisting of long cylindrical fibers with a diameter in the limit of geometrical optics. The absorption and scattering coefficients and the scattering phase function of the medium are determined b ...

Experimental and Numerical Characterization of a New 45 kWel Multisource High-Flux Solar Simulator

Sophia Haussener, Gaël Jean Clément Levêque

The performance of a new high-flux solar simulator consisting of 18 × 2.5 kWel radiation modules has been evaluated. Grayscale images of the radiative flux distribution at the focus are acquired for each module individually using a water-cooled Lambertian ...

Optical Design of Multisource High-Flux Solar Simulators

Sophia Haussener

We present a systematic approach to the design of a set of high-flux solar simulators (HFSSs) for solar thermal, thermochemical, and materials research. The generic simulator concept consists of an array of identical radiation modules arranged in concentri ...

Worldwide impacts of climate change on energy for heating and cooling

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau, Santosh Ram Joshi

The energy sector is not only a major contributor to greenhouse gases, it is also vulnerable to climate change and will have to adapt to future climate conditions. The objective of this study is to analyze the impacts of changes in future temperatures on t ...

A 10 mK scanning tunneling microscope operating in ultra high vacuum and high magnetic fields

Klaus Kern

We present design and performance of a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) that operates at temperatures down to 10 mK providing ultimate energy resolution on the atomic scale. The STM is attached to a dilution refrigerator with direct access to an ultra h ...

A radiative transfer model for an idealized and non-scattering atmosphere and its application for ground-based remote sensing of the troposphere

Marc Schneebeli Zeugin

Inversion of tropospheric profiles from ground-based microwavemeasurements requires a simple and accurate model for calculating the brightness temperatures as received by the radiometer. In the first part, an analytic solution of the radiative transfer equ ...
