After many years of successful operation, the JET saddle coil system will be dismantled during the 2004-2005 shutdown. A new antenna system has been designed and is being constructed to replace it and excite magneto-hydrodynamics modes in the Alfvén freque ...
It is sometimes observed that several neoclassical tearing modes (NTMs) are present at the same time. This can happen both at the mode onset of a new NTM or during the nonlinear saturated phase of a given mode. In order to analyse whether nonlinear mode co ...
Some basic properties of collisionless, trapped-electron mode turbulence in tokamaks are investigated by means of massively parallel gyrokinetic Vlasov simulations. In particular, the spatial structure and wave number spectra of various fluctuating plasma ...
A characterization of the H-mode in Tokamak de Varennes (TdeV) is presented, combining results obtained from spectroscopic measurements with observations of global plasma parameters. Controlled L- and H-modes are obtained by applying an external bias on th ...
Electrostatic microinstabilities in ion internal barrier (ITB) and H-mode discharges of the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak [O. Gruber, R. Arslanbekov, C. Atanasiu , Nucl. Fusion 41, 1369 (2001)] have been investigated with a full radius gyrokinetic code. The code m ...
Experimental plasma-edge gradients in JET during the edge-localized-mode (ELM) free H-mode are examined for evidence of the presence and location of the transport barrier region inside the magnetic separatrix. High spatial resolution data in electron densi ...
The paper presents the KINX code for computing linear ideal MHD growth rates and eigenvectors of axisymmetric plasmas surrounded by a vacuum layer and a conducting wall. Plasma equilibrium magnetic surfaces are assumed to be nested either in the whole plas ...
Transport phenomena in tokamak plasmas strongly limit the particle and energy confinement and represent a crucial obstacle to controlled thermonuclear fusion. Within the vast framework of transport studies, three topics have been tackled in the present the ...
A heavy ion beam diagnostic for the tokamak ISTTOK has been developed with the aim of measuring the temporal evolution of the electron density, plasma potential, electron temperature and poloidal magnetic field radial profiles. The control and data acquisi ...
Ongoning remote handling trials are being performed at JET, using the MASCOT IV servomanipulator, in order to establish the feasibility of proposed remote handling tasks. This promotes the development of appropriate tools and methods, the determination of ...
