On the non-existence of stepped-pressure equilibria far from symmetry

The Stepped Pressure Equilibrium Code (SPEC) (Hudson et al 2012 Phys. Plasmas 19 112502) has been successful in the construction of equilibria in 3D configurations that contain a mixture of flux surfaces, islands and chaotic magnetic field lines. In this m ...

Dynamics of wind-induced coastal upwelling and interbasin exchange in Lake Geneva during winter: Implications for deepwater renewal

Rafael Sebastian Reiss

Water quality in lakes is closely linked to hydrodynamics and often dominated by stratification, limiting the exchange between the epi- and hypolimnion. Thus, the vertical redistribution of biogeochemical tracers such as dissolved oxygen and nutrients by c ...

Time-reversal symmetry breaking Abelian chiral spin liquid in Mott phases of three-component fermions on the triangular lattice

Frédéric Mila, Karlo Penc, Pierre Marcel Nataf, Miklos Lajko, Carolin Boos

We provide numerical evidence in favor of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking and the concomitant appearance of an Abelian chiral spin liquid for three-component fermions on the triangular lattice described by an SU(3) symmetric Hubbard model with hopping ...

Surface-induced reversal of a phase transformation for the synthesis of epsilon-Fe2O3 nanoparticles with high coercivity

A metastable 8-polymorph of iron(III) oxide (epsilon-Fe2O3) is a very attractive material from the technological, engineering, and scientific points of view. In comparison with other iron oxides, it is characterized by unusual magnetic properties and a gia ...

Acoustic emission source detection and wave generation on a working plate using piezoelectric actuators

Xinchang Liu

In modern automated assembly lines, part feeders play an important role to separate and sort parts. Agility and flexibility are required to achieve a good yield for different types of parts. The common working principle is to vibrate a working plate driven ...

Cold pulse and rotation reversals with turbulence spreading and residual stress

Ning Yan

Transport modeling based on inclusion of turbulence spreading and residual stresses shows internal rotation reversals and polarity reversal of cold pulses, with a clear indication of nonlocal transport effects due to fast spreading in the turbulence intens ...

X-point Position Dependence of Edge Intrinsic Toroidal Rotation on TCV

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Holger Reimerdes, Benoît Labit, Alexander Karpushov, Wouter Vijvers

Recent theoretical work predicts intrinsic toroidal rotation in the tokamak edge to depend strongly on the normalized major radial position of the X-point. With this motivation, we conducted a series of Ohmic L-mode shots on the Tokamak a Configuration Var ...

X-Point-Position-Dependent Intrinsic Toroidal Rotation in the Edge of TCV

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Holger Reimerdes, Benoît Labit, Alexander Karpushov, Yann Camenen, Wouter Vijvers

Edge intrinsic rotation was investigated in Ohmic L-mode discharges on the Tokamak a Configuration Variable, scanning the major radial position of the X point, R-X. Edge rotation decreased linearly with increasing RX, vanishing or becoming countercurrent f ...

Canopy wake measurements using multiple scanning wind LiDARs

Fernando Porté Agel, Corey Dean Markfort, Giacomo Valerio Iungo, Fernando Carbajo Fuertes

Canopy wakes have been shown, in controlled wind tunnel experiments, to significantly affect the fluxes of momentum, heat and other scalars at the land and water surface over distances of O(1 km), see Markfort et al. (EFM, 2013). However, there are current ...

Ohmic energy confinement saturation and core toroidal rotation reversal in Alcator C-Mod plasmas

Basil Duval

Ohmic energy confinement saturation is found to be closely related to core toroidal rotation reversals in Alcator C-Mod tokamak plasmas. Rotation reversals occur at a critical density, depending on the plasma current and toroidal magnetic field, which coin ...
