A phase-contrast-imaging core fluctuation diagnostic and first-principles turbulence modeling for JT-60SA

Stefano Coda, Stephan Brunner, Matthieu Toussaint, Kenji Tanaka, Aylwin Iantchenko

A core fluctuation diagnostic based on the phase-contrast imaging (PCI) technique has been designed for the JT-60SA tokamak, with the assistance of a synthetic diagnostic coupled to a gyrokinetic code. Using a tangentially viewing geometry, this system wou ...

Fundamental Properties and Classification of Polarization Converting Bianisotropic Metasurfaces

Olivier Martin, Karim Achouri

We provide a detailed discussion on the electromagnetic modeling and classification of polarization converting bianisotropic metasurfaces. To do so, we first present a general approach to compute the scattering response of suchmetasurfaces, which relies on ...

Enhanced-performance integrated Resonant Switched-Capacitor and Buck DC-DC converters for application in extreme radiation and magnetic field environments

Giacomo Ripamonti

DC-DC converters based on Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) have been developed in this doctoral work for the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) experiments at CERN. They step down the voltage from a 2.5 V line and supply a load ...

Multipolar origin of electromagnetic transverse force resulting from two-wave interference

Olivier Martin, Karim Achouri, Andrei Kiselev

We propose a theoretical study on the electromagnetic forces resulting from the superposition of TE and TM plane waves interacting with a sphere. Specifically, we first show that, under such an illumination condition, the sphere is subjected to a force tra ...
