Helicon normal modes in radially non-uniform plasma column

Ivo Furno, Philippe Frédérique Bruno Guittienne, Rémy Jacquier, Renat Karimov

Helicon discharges are often considered somewhat mysterious, exhibiting experimental behaviors that are challenging to explain, such as abrupt plasma density jumps, hysteresis, and ‘blue core’ formation, among others. A significant part of the difficulty i ...

Hosing of a Long Relativistic Particle Bunch in Plasma

Ambrogio Fasoli, Sun Hee Kim, Patrick Blanchard, Ivo Furno, Yanis Andrebe, Riccardo Agnello, Alban Sublet, Christine Stollberg

Experimental results show that hosing of a long particle bunch in plasma can be induced by wakefields driven by a short, misaligned preceding bunch. Hosing develops in the plane of misalignment, selfmodulation in the perpendicular plane, at frequencies clo ...

Flux pumping studies and Ti peaking by q-profile shaping using ECCD in ASDEX Upgrade

Olivier Sauter

On ASDEX Upgrade a prioritized ‘advanced Tokamak’ program has been run during the last two experimental campaigns, focusing on the effect of non-standard current profiles on the behavior of high beta plasmas. Two lines of non-standard (i.e. non-sawtoothing ...

Resonant interaction between runaway electrons and the toroidal magnetic field ripple in TCV

Umar Sheikh, Artur Perek, Carl Mathias Paul Hoppe

This work explains the anomalously high runaway electron (RE) pitch angles inferred in the flat-top of dedicated Tokamak a Configuration Variable (TCV) experiments. Kinetic modelling shows that the resonant interaction between the gyromotion of the electro ...

Search for long-lived particles decaying to final states with a pair of muons in proton-proton collisions at √s=13.6 TeV

Jan Steggemann, Konstantin Androsov, Anna Mascellani, Joanna Malgorzata Wanczyk

An inclusive search for long-lived exotic particles (LLPs) decaying to final states with a pair of muons is presented. The search uses data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.6 fb(-1) collected by the CMS experiment from the proton-proton coll ...

Design and Development of a Diagnostic System for a Non-Intercepting Direct Measure of the SPIDER Ion Source Beamlet Current

Basile Marie Jacques Pouradier Duteil

Stable and uniform beams with low divergence are required in particle accelerators; therefore, beyond the accelerated current, measuring the beam current spatial uniformity and stability over time is necessary to assess the beam performance, since these pa ...

Vertical electron cyclotron emission diagnostic on the tokamak à configuration variable

Ambrogio Fasoli, Stefano Coda, Laurie Porte

In this paper, a diagnostic for the measurement of the electron cyclotron emission (ECE) from non-thermal electrons in magnetically confined fusion plasmas is presented. The diagnostic employs a vertical viewing line of sight that allows us to directly inf ...

Feasibility Study of GaToroid Gantries for Carbon Ions

Bertrand Dutoit, Bertrand Dutoit, Enrico Felcini

The use of carbon ions in particle therapy can enhance the treatment quality, introducing higher biological effectiveness compared to photons and protons. Rotating gantries are nowadays used to deliver particle beams from different directions to obtain pre ...

A self-consistent multi-component model of plasma turbulence and kinetic neutral dynamics for the simulation of the tokamak boundary

Paolo Ricci

A self-consistent model is presented for the simulation of a multi-component plasma in the tokamak boundary. A deuterium plasma is considered, with the plasma species that include electrons, deuterium atomic ions and deuterium molecular ions, while the deu ...

The power threshold of H-mode access in mixed hydrogen-tritium and pure tritium plasmas at JET with ITER-like wall

Henri Weisen

The heating power to access the high confinement mode (H-mode), P (LH), scales approximately inversely with the isotope mass of the main ion plasma species as found in (protonic) hydrogen, deuterium and tritium plasmas in many fusion facilities over the la ...

Enhanced confinement in diverted negative-triangularity L-mode plasmas in TCV

Olivier Sauter, Stefano Coda, Alessandro Pau, Benoît Labit, Laurie Porte, Antoine Pierre Emmanuel Alexis Merle, Umar Sheikh, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui, Alessandro Marinoni, Matteo Vallar, Filippo Bagnato

The favorable confinement properties of negative-triangularity (NT) tokamak configurations were discovered in the TCV tokamak in the late 1990s and were documented over the two following decades, through investigations of predominantly electron-heated plas ...
