Investigating the impact of the molecular charge-exchange rate on detached SOLPS-ITER simulations

Basil Duval, Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh

Plasma-molecular interactions generate molecular ions which react with the plasma and contribute to detachment through molecular activated recombination (MAR), reducing the ion target flux, and molecular activated dissociation (MAD), both of which create e ...

Optical and mid-infrared line emission in nearby Seyfert galaxies

Michaela Hirschmann

Line ratio diagnostics provide valuable clues as to the source of ionizing radiation in galaxies with intense black hole accretion and starbursting events, such as local Seyfert galaxies or galaxies at the peak of their star formation history. We aim to pr ...

NMR Crystallography in the Big Data Era: New Methods and Applications Powered by Machine Learning

Manuel Cordova

Structure determination of materials is key to understanding their physical properties. While single-crystal X-ray diffraction is the gold standard for structures displaying long-range order, many materials of interest are polycrystalline and/or disordered ...

Spectroscopic characterisation of TCV divertor towards a detached regime

Lorenzo Martinelli

The challenge of power exhaust of the high heat and particle fluxes foreseen for ITER and the forthcoming nuclear fusion reactors can be mitigated by operating in a detached divertor regime. This regime has been the object of three decades of studies, as i ...

Engineering Absorption for Foil Applications

Sebastian Mader

Light matter interactions such as extinction, reflection, and transmission can be described by classical optics. Dur-ing the past decades, research focused on a novel resonant extinction type called plasmonics that allows for en-hancement of both types of ...

A novel hydrogenic spectroscopic technique for inferring the role of plasma-molecule interaction on power and particle balance during detached conditions

Basil Duval, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh, Mirko Wensing, Artur Perek

Detachment, an important mechanism for reducing target heat deposition, is achieved through reductions in power, particle and momentum; which are induced through plasma-atom and plasma-molecule interactions. Experimental research in how those reactions pre ...

A study of the influence of plasma-molecule interactions on particle balance during detachment

Basil Duval, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh, Mirko Wensing, Artur Perek

In this work we provide experimental insights into the impact of plasma-molecule interactions on the target ion flux decrease during divertor detachment achieved through a core density ramp in the TCV tokamak. Our improved analysis of the hydrogen Balmer s ...

Investigation of the fine structure of antihydrogen

Shirit Cohen

At the historic Shelter Island Conference on the Foundations of Quantum Mechanics in 1947, Willis Lamb reported an unexpected feature in the fine structure of atomic hydrogen: a separation of the 2S(1/2) and 2P(1/2) states(1). The observation of this separ ...

Thermo-optic tuning of spectral broadening in a nonlinear Ultra-Silicon-Rich Nitride grating

Jae-Woo Choi

Temperature tuning of spectral broadening induced by a nonlinear grating is experimentally demonstrated. The bandwidth is observed to decrease as temperature increases, corresponding to a red-shift in the high dispersion region of the Bragg grating. ...
