Analysis of deposited layers with deuterium and impurity elements on samples from the divertor of JET with ITER-like wall

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Yves Martin, Jonathan Graves, Duccio Testa, Cristian Sommariva, Patrick Blanchard, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia

Inconel-600 blocks and stainless steel covers for quartz microbalance crystals from remote corners in the JET-ILW divertor were studied with time-of-flight elastic recoil detection analysis and nuclear reaction analysis to obtain information about the area ...

Tritium distributions on W-coated divertor tiles used in the third JET ITER-like wall campaign

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Yves Martin, Jonathan Graves, Duccio Testa, Cristian Sommariva, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Patrick Blanchard

Tritium (T) distributions on tungsten (W)-coated plasma-facing tiles used in the third ITER-like wall campaign (2015-2016) of the Joint European Torus (JET) were examined by means of an imaging plate technique and beta-ray induced x-ray spectrometry, and t ...

Population modelling of the He II energy levels in tokamak plasmas: I. Collisional excitation model

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Yves Martin, Jonathan Graves, Duccio Testa, Cristian Sommariva, Patrick Blanchard, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia

Helium is widely used as a fuel or minority gas in laboratory fusion experiments, and will be present as ash in DT thermonuclear plasmas. It is therefore essential to have a good understanding of its atomic physics. To this end He II population modelling h ...

Validation of the ICRF antenna coupling code RAPLICASOL against TOPICA and experiments

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Timothy Goodman, Yves Martin, Jean-Marc Moret, Duccio Testa, Patrick Blanchard, Bruno Marchand, Holger Reimerdes

In this paper we validate the finite element code RAPLICASOL, which models radiofrequency wave propagation in edge plasmas near ICRF antennas, against calculations with the TOPICA code. We compare the output of both codes for the ASDEX Upgrade 2-strap ante ...

Role of the pedestal position on the pedestal performance in AUG, JET-ILW and TCV and implications for ITER

Stefano Coda, Patrick Blanchard, Benoît Labit, Antoine Pierre Emmanuel Alexis Merle, Umar Sheikh, Pamela Solange Valdés Undurraga, Lenke Horváth

The role of the pedestal position on the pedestal performance has been investigated in AUG, JET-ILW and TCV. When the pedestal is peeling-ballooning (PB) limited, the three machines show a similar behaviour. The outward shift of the pedestal density relati ...

Neutron spectroscopy measurements of 14 MeV neutrons at unprecedented energy resolution and implications for deuterium-tritium fusion plasma diagnostics

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Yves Martin, Jonathan Graves, Duccio Testa, Cristian Sommariva, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Patrick Blanchard

An accurate calibration of the JET neutron diagnostics with a 14 MeV neutron generator was performed in the first half of 2017 in order to provide a reliable measurement of the fusion power during the next JET deuterium-tritium (DT) campaign. In order to m ...

14 MeV calibration of JET neutron detectors-phase 1: calibration and characterization of the neutron source

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Yves Martin, Jonathan Graves, Duccio Testa, Cristian Sommariva, Patrick Blanchard, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia

In view of the planned DT operations at JET, a calibration of the JET neutron monitors at 14 MeV neutron energy is needed using a 14 MeV neutron generator deployed inside the vacuum vessel by the JET remote handling system. The target accuracy of this cali ...

Evaluation of the toxicity of graphene derivatives on cells of the lung luminal surface

László Forró, Klaus Kern, Arnaud Magrez, Lenke Horváth, Marko Burghard, Beat Schwaller

Graphene-based nanomaterials are expected to have a profound impact on a broad range of applications. However, studies devoted to investigating the putative adverse health effects of these nanomaterials are hugely underrepresented in the current scientific ...

Toxicity study of nanostructures

Lenke Horváth

The great achievement of nanotechnology is the controlled synthesis of a large variety of nanometer-size materials like needle-formed nanotubes, nanowires and two-dimensional graphene flakes. Due to their unique physico-chemical properties, these nanostruc ...
