Within the validation work of EGNOS for civil aviation, it is interesting to analyze the transmitted corrections individually. In this paper, the ionospheric model of EGNOS is compared to the one determined by an independent organization (CODE). The contin ...
The TCV tokamak is equipped with a four-channel ultrasoft x-ray monochromator allowing low resolution (lambda/Deltalambda similar to 30) measurements in the energy range 200-800eV. Its main purpose is to simultaneously monitor emission from four of the mai ...
If an ELM is a peeling of flux surfaces from the plasma, due to a broken separatrix, current density is lost as well as particles and energy. The fast loss of a current-carrying plasma layer modifies the plasma equilibrium, leading to sudden shifts in the ...
The modification of the stability and the behaviour of core MHD with local electron cyclotron current drive (ECCD) is presented. Starting from the innermost resonant surface, the q = 1 surface, the stability and hence the sawtooth period and the size of sa ...
This paper presents the conceptual and technical aspects of a system in development that precisely determines athlete's trajectory through a course. Carrier phase-based (CP-DGPS) positioning represents core of the system, while tri-acial accelerometer and ...
Experimental data from many Tokamaks suggest that an important fraction of radial particle and heat transport in the Scrape-Off-Layer is due to poloidally-localized propagating structures of increased plasma density (blobs). A better understanding of the m ...
We present a review of theoretical methods to compute lightning-induced currents and voltages on buried cables. The evaluation of such induced disturbances requires the calculation of the electric field produced by lightning along the cable path. We show t ...
Magnetic triggering of edge localized modes (ELMs) was reported first from TCV in ohmic plasmas showing type-III ELMs. This method, showing successful locking of the ELM frequency to an imposed vertical plasma oscillation, has now also been demonstrated in ...
In this paper, we propose a method based on genetic algorithms to extract primary lightning return stroke current parameters from currents measured using instrumented towers, including the possibility of contamination by multiple reflections occuring along ...
Different remote sensing techniques have been used for the analysis of the air pollution in the Milan area. Results and intercomparisons from two lidars are presented, obtained from a ground based and an airborne instrument. Combining them with range resol ...
