The highest volume averaged beta values beta (t) of 2.2% at B-t = 0.75 T (gas puff) and 2.4% at D-t = 1.3 T (pellet) in helical devices have been achieved in LHD. The beta (t) dependence of MHD activities has been investigated in NBI plasmas. The n/m = 1/2 ...
Partial-depth modulation of the rf power in a capacitive discharge is used to investigate the relative importance of negative ions and neutral radicals for particle formation in low-power low-pressure silane plasmas. For less than 85% modulation depth, ani ...
A new technique and results are presented for the estimation of the open loop frequency response of the plasma on TCV. Voltages were applied to poloidal field coils and the resulting plasma current, position and shape related parameters were measured. The ...
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 ...
Good understanding of the different phases of involved plasma-chemistry is essential for the development of non thermal plasma technologies for pollution control. These techniques are often based on the production of radicals from dissociation parent gases ...
The wave structures, eigenfrequencies and damping rates of toroidicity and ellipticity induced Alfven eigenmodes (TAEs, EAEs) of low toroidal mode numbers (n) are calculated for various axisymmetric ideal MHD equilibria with the global wave finite element ...
An electrostatic charge can be left on an insulating substrate after RF plasma processing, even though the plasma and surfaces are globally neutral. High voltages and breakdown can then occur when the substrate is manipulated. If the substrate is not a per ...
