Equilibrium β-limits dependence on bootstrap current in classical stellarators

Jonathan Graves, Joaquim Loizu Cisquella, Antoine Baillod, Hugo Paul Arbez

While it is important to design stellarators with high magnetohydrodynamic stability β-limit, it is also crucial to ensure that good magnetic surfaces exist in a large range of β values. As β increases, pressure-driven currents perturb the vacuum magnetic ...

Maximum likelihood bolometry for ASDEX upgrade experiments

Olivier Claude Martin Février, Riccardo Rossi

Bolometry is an essential diagnostic for calculating the power balances and for the understanding of different physical aspects of tokamak experiments. The reconstruction method based on the Maximum Likelihood (ML) principle, developed initially for JET, h ...

Runaway dynamics in tokamak disruptions with current relaxation

Carl Mathias Paul Hoppe

The safe operation of tokamak reactors requires a reliable modelling capability of disruptions, and in particular the spatio-temporal dynamics of associated runaway electron currents. In a disruption, instabilities can break up magnetic surfaces into chaot ...

Novel Search for High-Frequency Gravitational Waves with Low-Mass Axion Haloscopes

Valerie Fiona Domcke

Gravitational waves (GWs) generate oscillating electromagnetic effects in the vicinity of external electric and magnetic fields. We discuss this phenomenon with a particular focus on reinterpreting the results of axion haloscopes based on lumped-element de ...

Modeling of saturated external MHD instabilities in tokamaks: A comparison of 3D free boundary equilibria and nonlinear stability calculations

Jonathan Graves

3D free boundary equilibrium computations have recently been used to model external kinks and edge harmonic oscillations (EHOs), comparing with linear MHD stability codes, and nonlinear analytic theory [Kleiner et al., Phys. Plasma Controlled Fusion 61, 08 ...

The DEMO magnet system - Status and future challenges

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Rainer Wesche, Kamil Sedlák, Davide Uglietti, Roberto Guarino, Mithlesh Kumar, Vincenzo D'Auria, Ortensia Dicuonzo, Chiara Frittitta, Federica Demattè

We present the pre-concept design of the European DEMO Magnet System, which has successfully passed the DEMO plant-level gate review in 2020. The main design input parameters originate from the so-called DEMO 2018 baseline, which was produced using the PRO ...

Reentrant magic-angle phenomena in twisted bilayer graphene in integer magnetic fluxes

Oleg Yazyev, Yifei Guan

In this Letter we address the reentrance of magic-angle phenomena (band flatness and quantum-geometric transport) in twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) subjected to strong magnetic fluxes +/-(1)0, +/- 200, +/- 3(p0 ... ((D0 = h/e is the flux quantum per moire ...

Enhanced-DAB Converter: Comprehensive Design Evaluation

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Armin Jafari, Mohammad Samizadeh Nikooytabalvandani

Soft switching in dual-active-bridge (DAB) converters enables their efficient operation at high frequencies, where the reduction in the size of magnetic components could result in ultra-high power densities. Nonetheless, losing soft-switching at high frequ ...

Drift-related transport and plasma-neutral interaction in the TCV divertor

Mirko Wensing

Thermonuclear fusion of light atoms is the primary energy source of stars, such as our Sun, that led to the emergence of life on Earth. However, its economic exploitation as a virtually unlimited and clean energy source is yet to be developed. One of the m ...

Real-time feedback control of the impurity emission front in tokamak divertor plasmas

Basil Duval, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Federico Alberto Alfredo Felici, Cristian Galperti, Artur Perek

In magnetic confinement thermonuclear fusion the exhaust of heat and particles from the core remains a major challenge. Heat and particles leaving the core are transported via open magnetic field lines to a region of the reactor wall, called the divertor. ...

h/e oscillations in interlayer transport of delafossites

Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Matthias Carsten Putzke

Microstructures can be carefully designed to reveal the quantum phase of the wave-like nature of electrons in a metal. Here, we report phase-coherent oscillations of out-of-plane magnetoresistance in the layered delafossites PdCoO2 and PtCoO2. The oscillat ...

Ablation in Externally Applied Electric and Magnetic Fields

Yves Bellouard, Tao Yang

To harness light-matter interactions at the nano-/micro-scale, better tools for control must be developed. Here, it is shown that by applying an external electric and/or magnetic field, ablation of Si and glass under ultra-short (sub-1 ps) laser pulse irra ...

Instantaneous radiation from time-varying electric and magnetic dipoles

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Mohammad Sajjad Mirmoosa

Radiation from magnetic and electric dipole moments is a key subject in the theory of electrodynamics. Although people treat the problem thoroughly in the context of the frequency domain, the problem is still not well understood in the context of the time ...

Fluctuation relations for systems in a constant magnetic field

Sara Bonella, Alessandro Coretti

The validity of the fluctuation relations (FRs) for systems in a constant magnetic field is investigated. Recently introduced time-reversal symmetries that hold in the presence of static electric and magnetic fields and of deterministic thermostats are use ...
