Insights into the interaction of a shale with CO2

Lyesse Laloui, Eleni Stavropoulou

Caprock formations, such as shales, play a key role in safe underground CO2 storage since they serve as a hydromechanical barrier that prevents migration of the injected CO2 to the surface. While their hydromechanical response is important to ensure their ...

Ion temperature spectroscopic measurements in high rotation discharges by means of X-ray diagnostic at JET

Henri Weisen

Measurement of the X-ray spectra of the He-like Ni ions (Ni26+) and their dielectronic satellites (Ni25+, Ni24+, and Ni23+) plays a crucial role in determination of electronic and ion temperature of plasma in the JET device. Because n >= 3 satellites of Ni ...
