Ultra-compact spoof surface plasmon polariton waveguides and notch filters based on double-sided parallel-strip lines

In this paper, we propose a new variety of strong field confinement, ultra-compact size, easy-to-integrate spoof surface plasmon polariton (SSPP) waveguides based on double-sided parallel-strip lines (DSPSL), which are formed by etching opposite spiral gro ...

H-mode grade confinement in L-mode edge plasmas at negative triangularity on DIII-D

Olivier Sauter, Alessandro Marinoni, Sung Chul Park

Plasmas with a negative triangularity shape have been created on the DIII-D tokamak that, despite maintaining standard L-mode edge radial profiles, reach volume averaged pressure levels typical of H-mode scenarios. Within the auxiliary power available for ...

Effects of collisionality and T e /T i on fluctuations in positive and negative δ tokamak plasmas

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Stefano Coda, Stephan Brunner, Laurie Porte, Gabriele Merlo, Matteo Fontana, Ajay Chandrarajan Jayalekshmi

The effects of negative triangularity () on confinement and fluctuations in plasmas covering a large range of parameters were investigated on the tokamak à configuration variable (TCV). The conditions explored in this paper include discharges where neutral ...

Physics and performance of the I-mode regime over an expanded operating space on Alcator C-Mod

Christian Gabriel Theiler, Yu Lin

New results on the I-mode regime of operation on the Alcator C-Mod tokamak are reported. This ELM-free regime features high energy confinement and a steep temperature pedestal, while particle confinement remains at L-mode levels, giving stationary density ...

Fast particle loss channels in Wendelstein 7-X

Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Jonathan Graves, Jonathan Marc Philippe Faustin, David Pfefferlé

One of the main goals of Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) is to demonstrate the fast particle confinement properties of the quasi-isodynamic stellarator concept. Fast particle populations will be produced either by Neutral Beam Injection (NBI) or by minority Ion Cyc ...

Overview of MAST results

Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Mario Ludovico Podesta, Jan Horacek, Ben McMillan, Ricardo Pérez Suárez, Otto Asunta

The Mega Ampere Spherical Tokamak (MAST) programme is strongly focused on addressing key physics issues in preparation for operation of ITER as well as providing solutions for DEMO design choices. In this regard, MAST has provided key results in understand ...

Counterpropagating Rossby waves in confined plane wakes

François Gallaire, Luca Biancofiore

In the present work, we revisit the temporal and the spatio-temporal stability of confined plane wakes under the perspective of the counterpropagating Rossby waves (CRWs). Within the context of broken line velocity profiles, each vorticity discontinuity ca ...

On the Characteristics of Highly Confined Light Fields : A High-Resolution Interference Microscopy Study

Myun Sik Kim

The Investigation of highly confined light fields created by different mechanisms, such as refraction, diffraction, and scattering, are the main subject of this thesis. We distinguish a specific scattering phenomenon of dielectric microspheres from general ...

Correcting spherical aberrations induced by an unknown medium through determination of its refractive index and thickness

Pramod Rastogi, Daniel Iwaniuk

In imaging and focusing applications, spherical aberration induces axial broadening of the point spread function (PSF). A transparent medium between lens and object of interest induces spherical aberration. We propose a method that first obtains both the p ...

Modeling and control of the current density profile in tokamaks and its relation to electron transport

Costanza Zucca

The current density in tokamak plasmas strongly affects transport phenomena, therefore its understanding and control represent a crucial challenge for controlled thermonuclear fusion. Within the vast framework of tokamak studies, three topics have been tac ...
