Comparison of high density and nitrogen seeded detachment using SOLPS-ITER simulations of the tokamak a configuration variable

Basil Duval, Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh, Mirko Wensing, Hugo De Oliveira, Lorenzo Martinelli

First of a kind SOLPS-ITER simulations on tokamak a configuration variable (TCV) that include nitrogen have been performed to model recent nitrogen seeded detachment experiments. Based on spectroscopic measurements, a nitrogen recycling coefficient R-p(N) ...

Antennas for CubeSat Communication

Miroslav Veljovic

CubeSats are a type of small satellites (< 500 kg) that weigh several kilograms and consist of multiple Units (U) measuring 100 × 100 × 113.5 mm3. CubeSats emerged as a low-cost alternative to conventional large satellites, and have since demonstrated capa ...

Measurements of ion velocity and wave propagation in a hollow cathode plume

Christopher Andrew Dodson

The mechanism responsible for the production of energetic ions in the plume of hollow cathodes for electric propulsion is still an open issue. These ions are of concern to cathode and thruster lifetime, particularly for cathodes operating at high (>20 A) d ...

Ultraslow radiative cooling of Cn- (n=3-5)

Eduardo Carrascosa Casado

Ultraslow radiative cooling lifetimes and adiabatic detachment energies for three astrochemically relevant anions, Cn- (n = 3-5), are measured using the Double ElectroStatic Ion Ring ExpEriment (DESIREE) infrastructure at Stockholm University. DESIREE main ...

Magnetic field configurational study on a helicon-based plasma source for future neutral beam systems

Ivo Furno, Alan Howling, Riccardo Agnello, Philippe Frédérique Bruno Guittienne, Rémy Jacquier

A helicon-based plasma source is under development and exploration at CEA-IRFM to produce an efficient and dense magnetized plasma column. The final objective of this development is the extraction and acceleration of a blade-like negative ion beam in view ...

Standard ion transfer potential at the water|butyronitrile interface

Hubert Girault, Astrid Johana Olaya Avendano, Victor Costa Bassetto, Julieta Soledad Riva

Butyronitrile is an organic solvent stable enough to be used in photochemical reactions at liquid/liquid interfaces. However, it provides a rather short polarisation window making the analysis of ion transfer across the water|butyronitrile interface challe ...

Development and performance evaluation of a high mass resolution time of flight laser ablation ionisation mass spectrometer

Reto Wiesendanger

This thesis contributes to the field of analytical chemistry of solid samples by introducing a new instrument with unprecedented performance characteristics and analytical capabilities. The instrument is based on the laser ablation and ionisation time-of-f ...

The Dynamic Emission Zone in Sandwich Polymer Light-Emitting Electrochemical Cells

Frank Nüesch, Matthias Diethelm

In light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs), the position of the emission zone (EZ) is not predefined via a multilayer architecture design, but governed by a complex motion of electrical and ionic charges. As a result of the evolution of doped charge tr ...

Cavity ring-down spectroscopy to measure negative ion density in a helicon plasma source for fusion neutral beams

Ivo Furno, Alan Howling, Gennady Plyushchev, Yanis Andrebe, Riccardo Agnello, Philippe Frédérique Bruno Guittienne, Rémy Jacquier

Cavity Ring Down Spectroscopy (CRDS) is used to measure the D- absolute density produced in the helicon plasma reactor RAID (Resonant Antenna Ion Device) at the Swiss Plasma Center. The birdcage geometry of the helicon antenna produces a homogeneous, high- ...
