Data produced by an electron cyclotron interferometer diagnostic are now available to the real-time control systems of of the joint European torus (JET) tokamak. The data consist of absolutely calibrated electron temperature profiles, covering the plasma l ...
Innovative high-frequency magnetic sensors have been designed and manufactured in-house for installation on the Tokamak a Configuration Variable (TCV), which are now routinely operational during the TCV experimental campaigns. These sensors combine the Low ...
Thermonuclear fusion is a potentially clean and limitless energy source that can substantially change the current global electricity generation mix, which is highly dependent on limited fossil fuels.
This thesis contributes to the development of fusion en ...
Cu2OSeO3 is an insulating skyrmion-host material with a magnetoelectric coupling giving rise to an electric polarization with a characteristic dependence on the magnetic-field (H) over right arrow. We report a magnetic force microscopy imaging of the helic ...
It is well known that helical magnetic fields undergo a so-called inverse cascade by which their correlation length grows due to the conservation of magnetic helicity in classical ideal magnetohydro-dynamics (MHD). At high energies above approximately 10 M ...
This thesis focuses on the physics of suprathermal electrons generated by electron cyclotron (EC) waves in tokamak plasmas, which play an important role in the physics of current drive and energetic particle-driven instabilities. The suprathermal electron ...
Dedicated experiments were conducted in mixed H-D plasmas in JET to demonstrate the efficiency of the 3-ion ICRF scenario for plasma heating, relying on injected fast NBI ions as the resonant ion component. Strong core localization of the RF power depositi ...
The aim of this research is to clarify the contribution of sunlight wavelengths, irradiance and Fe2+/H2O2 during bacterial disinfection by the photo-Fenton process in clear surface waters. We considered different solar spectrum distributions (visible, UVA- ...
FIDASIM is a code that models signals produced by charge-exchange reactions between neutrals and ions (both fast and thermal) in magnetically confined plasmas. With the ion distribution function as input, the code predicts the efflux to a neutral particle ...
Niobium thin lms are used at CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research) for coatings of superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) accelerating cavities. Numerical simulations can help to better understand the physical processes involved in such coatings ...
