Synchrotron radiation-induced total reflection x-ray fluorescence (TXRF) analysis was used for the trace element analysis of steels exploited in the construction of core components of existing fission plants and future fusion power plants. Detection of tra ...
Colliders use final focus systems to reduce the transverse beam sizes at the interaction point in order to increase collision event rates. The maximum focal strength (gradient) of the quadrupoles, and the maximum beam size in them, together limit the beam ...
Magnetic diagnostics are essential for the operation and understanding of a magnetic fusion device. Magnetic data are used in real time to measure and control the current, shape, and position of the discharge; the thermal energy of the plasma; the confinin ...
The PS accelerator (Proton-Synchrotron) at CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research) is composed of one hundred magnets connected in series. During a cycle of 2.4 seconds, the active power at the magnets terminals varies from plus to minus 40 MW. A ...
In the scope of the design activities for a 12.5 T dipole magnet, a short length of cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) with steel jacket was prepared in spring 2005 as a pre-prototype of the high field dipole conductor. The small, rectangular conductor uses ...
A high-energy (0.5-3.0 TeV centre of mass) electron-positron Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) is being studied at CERN as a new physics facility. The design study has been optimized for 3 TeV centre-of-mass energy. Intense bunches injected into the main lina ...
The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of a recent study carried out-within the framework of the European Fusion Program-to design a 12.5 T superconducting dipole. By focusing on the CICC based design option, the overall design procedure is presen ...
"Lab-On-a-Chip" (LOC) systems are intended to transpose complete laboratory instrumentations on the few square centimetres of a single microfluidic chip. With such devices the objective is to minimize the time and cost associated with routine biological an ...
The attention of the fusion magnet specialists has been drawn in the last years to the volt-ampere characteristic (VAC) of the large cable-in-conduit conductors (CICC), as early voltage was observed in conductor and model coil tests, far away from the expe ...
Two subsize, Nb3Sn cable-in-conduit conductors, are tested as short samples in the SULTAN test facility. Transverse load is applied by sweeping up and down the operating current in high background field. A serious performance loss of I, and n-factor is obs ...
