Fast ion generation with ICRF waves and beams in the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator

The largest operating stellarator, Wendelstein 7-X, is of the quasi-isodynamic type. For this design to scale up to a fusion reactor, several criteria must be met, one of them being good fast ion confinement. The latter still has to be tested experimentall ...

An experimental and computational study of tokamak plasma turbulence

Aylwin Iantchenko

Turbulence driven by small-scale instabilities results in strong heat and particle transport, which significantly shortens the confinement time and prevents the formation of a self-sustained plasma reaction in magnetic confinement devices. Control and poss ...

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 ...

A machine-learning-based tool for last closed-flux surface reconstruction on tokamaks

Olivier Sauter, Alessandro Pau, Chenguang Wan, Xiaojuan Liu

Tokamaks allow to confine fusion plasma with magnetic fields. The prediction/reconstruction of the last closed-flux surface (LCFS) is one of the primary challenges in the control of the magnetic configuration. The evolution in time of the LCFS is determine ...

Modelling of nonneutral plasmas trapped by electric and magnetic fields relevant to gyrotron electron guns

Guillaume Michel Le Bars

Gyrotrons are a class of high-power vacuum-electronics microwave sources, which are envisioned to play an important role in the domain of magnetically confined fusion plasmas. Indeed, only gyrotrons are capable of producing continuous electromagnetic waves ...

Shafranov shift correction to the Furth-Yoshikawa scaling of tokamak adiabatic compression

Olivier Sauter

In 1970, Furth and Yoshikawa (1970 Phys. Fluids 13 2593-6) introduced the scalings of adiabatic plasma compression. Basically, if the shape of the external plasma boundary and the aspect ratio are preserved during the compression, then the density, kinetic ...

Medical and Personal Characteristics Can Predict the Risk of Lung Metastasis

Michele De Palma, Nahal Mansouri

Aims: Understanding the correlations between underlying medical and personal characteristics of a patient with cancer and the risk of lung metastasis may improve clinical management and outcomes. We used machine learning methodologies to predict the risk o ...

Technical and economic feasibility study of high-current HTS bus bars for fusion reactors

Rainer Wesche, Kamil Sedlák, Roberto Guarino

In this study, we present a technical and economic assessment of high-current HTS bus bars for primary use in fusion reactors. Our objective is to verify the technical feasibility of such conductors and, for this purpose, we carry out a conceptual design o ...

Excitation of Alfven eigenmodes by fusion-born alpha-particles in D-He-3 plasmas on JET

Henri Weisen, Javier García Hernández

Alfven eigenmode (AE) instabilities driven by alpha-particles have been observed in D-He-3 fusion experiments on the Joint European Torus (JET) with the ITER-like wall. For the efficient generation of fusion alpha-particles from D-He-3 fusion reaction, the ...

The role of eosinophils in breast cancer

Luisa Spisak

Eosinophils are granulocytes and belong to the innate arm of immunity. Eosinophils can be in different basal or activation states and depending on which type of activation is applied, they exert different effector functions. These multi-functional cells ha ...

Magnetic control of tokamak plasmas through deep reinforcement learning

Basil Duval, Ambrogio Fasoli, Jean-Marc Moret, Olivier Sauter, Stefano Coda, Jonas Buchli, Federico Alberto Alfredo Felici, Antoine Pierre Emmanuel Alexis Merle, Cristian Galperti, Francesco Carpanese, Federico Pesamosca, Cristian Sommariva, Jonas Degrave, Brendan Tracey

Nuclear fusion using magnetic confinement, in particular in the tokamak configuration, is a promising path towards sustainable energy. A core challenge is to shape and maintain a high-temperature plasma within the tokamak vessel. This requires high-dimensi ...
