Shedding light on the MRI-driven dynamo in a stratified shearing box
We study the magneto-rotational instability (MRI) dynamo in a geometrically thin disc (H/R < 1) using stratified zero net (vertical) flux shearing box simulations. We find that mean fields and electromotive forces (EMFs) oscillate with a primary frequency ...
2024Lightning interaction with the ionosphere
Marcos Rubinstein, Dongshuai Li
Lightning discharges, including cloud-to-ground (CG) and intracloud (IC) lightning, are known to emit electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) in a wide frequency band ranging from few Hz up to hundreds MHz [1]. During the breakdown and ionization processes (mostly f ...

Diagnostic alkali atom (e.g., lithium) beams are routinely used to diagnose magnetically confined plasmas, namely, to measure the plasma electron density profile in the edge and the scrape off layer region. A light splitting optics system was installed int ...
2018Simulating Daylight Propagation through Complex Fenestration Systems in a Urban Context Using Variable Sampling Subdivision Scheme
Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Chantal Basurto Dávila
The use of Complex Fenestration Systems (CFS) within buildings can contribute to a significant reduction of cooling loads by the way of two assets: the redirection of daylight and the shading of sunrays. In order to back-up these features, daylight perform ...
EPFL Solar Energy and Building Physics Laboratory (LESO-PB)2013Ultrasoft x-ray spectroscopy using multilayer mirrors on TCV
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 ...
