Impact of Hysteresis Losses in Hybrid (HTS-LTS) Coils for Fusion Applications

Several conductor designs featuring High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) stacked tapes for fusion coils are being proposed. These conductors are planned to operate in time-varying magnetic field and current; thus, the estimation of AC losses is fundament ...

Equilibrium β-limits dependence on bootstrap current in classical stellarators

Jonathan Graves, Joaquim Loizu Cisquella, Antoine Baillod

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 ...

Intergrade Joints for Nb3Sn cables of high magnetic field magnets

Vincenzo D'Auria

The objective of this thesis is the development of high-field and high-current joints between Nb3Sn cables for superconducting coils. The main fields of application are high energy physics (HEP) and thermonuclear fusion. In this thesis, the focus is on Win ...

Long Spin Lifetime in Rare-Earth Single-Atom Magnets at Surfaces

Boris Sorokin

Further miniaturisation of magnetic storage devices requires an advent of new types of magnets, since classical ferromagnetic materials show lack of remanence at nano- and subnanoscale. A single atom can represent the smallest possible bit of information. ...

The DEMO magnet system - Status and future challenges

Rainer Wesche, Pierluigi Bruzzone, Davide Uglietti, Kamil Sedlák, 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 ...

Separation and Recycling Potential of Rare Earth Elements from Energy Systems: Feed and Economic Viability Review

Christian Ludwig, Rudolf Paul Wilhelm Jozef Struis, Viktoria Paetzel, Ajay Bhagwan Patil

This review explores the potential of separating and recycling rare earth elements (REEs) from different energy conversion systems, such as wind turbines, electric vehicles batteries, or lighting devices. The REEs include 17 elements (with global productio ...

A comprehensive framework for hard-magnetic beams: Reduced-order theory, 3D simulations, and experiments

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Dong Yan, Arefeh Abbasi

Thin beams made of magnetorheological elastomers embedded with hard-magnetic particles (hard-MREs) are capable of large deflections under an applied magnetic field. We propose a comprehensive framework, comprising a beam model and 3D finite element modelin ...

Square and rhombic lattices of magnetic skyrmions in a centrosymmetric binary compound

Jonathan White, Le Yu

Magnetic skyrmions are topologically stable swirling spin textures with particle-like character, and have been intensively studied as a candidate of high-density information bit. While magnetic skyrmions were originally discovered in noncentrosymmetric sys ...

Characterization of the Radiation Resistance of Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastics for Superconducting Magnets

Sandra Sequeira Lopes Tavares

The overall performance of accelerator magnets strongly relies on electrical and mechanical robustness of their components. With an increase of the energy, future particle accelerators will have to withstand integral doses of ionizing radiation of up to se ...

Magnetism and metal-organic self-assembly of rare-earth atoms on decoupling layers

Sébastien Reynaud

This thesis presents investigations of magnetic and structural properties of two dimensional metal-organic frameworks and of single atoms, both adsorbed on decoupling layers grown on metal surfaces, with focus on rare earth elements. We first report on a ...
