Basic Investigation of Turbulent Structures and Blobs of Relevance for Magnetic Fusion Plasmas

Similarly to neutral fluids, plasmas often exhibit turbulent behavior. Turbulence in plasmas is usually more complex than in neutral fluids due to long range interactions via electric and magnetic fields, and kinetic effects. It gives rise to many interest ...

Mixing of multiple hydrogen plasma beams in a strong magnetic field by ExB drift-induced rotation

Wouter Vijvers

Mixing of up to three similar to 1 cm diameter plasma beams of pure hydrogen as well as mixtures of hydrogen and argon in magnetic fields of

Peak neoclassical toroidal viscosity at low toroidal rotation in the DIII-D tokamak

Holger Reimerdes

Observation of a theoretically predicted peak in the neoclassical toroidal viscous (NTV) force as a function of toroidal plasma rotation rate is reported. The NTV was generated by applying n = 3 magnetic fields from internal (I-)coils to low plasmas produc ...

Overview of toroidal momentum transport

Basil Duval, Yann Camenen, Alessandro Bortolon, Giovanni Tardini

Toroidal momentum transport mechanisms are reviewed and put in a broader perspective. The generation of a finite momentum flux is closely related to the breaking of symmetry (parity) along the field. The symmetry argument allows for the systematic identifi ...

Microturbulence driven transport of energetic ions in the ITER steady-state scenario

Mattia Albergante

Modelling of microturbulence-driven transport of energetic ions in an ITER steady-state scenario is presented. Results indicate that a significant fraction of the velocity space distribution of alpha particles and deuterium ions can be transported above ne ...

Experimental Evidence of Momentum Transport Induced by an Up-Down Asymmetric Magnetic Equilibrium in Toroidal Plasmas

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Alexander Karpushov, Yann Camenen, Alessandro Bortolon, Lucia Isabel Federspiel, Francesco Piras

The first experimental evidence of parallel momentum transport generated by the up-down asymmetry of a toroidal plasma is reported. The experiments, conducted in the Tokamak a` Configuration Variable, were motivated by the recent theoretical discovery of i ...

Plasma rotation and momentum transport studies in the TCV tokamak based on charge exchange spectroscopy measurements

Alessandro Bortolon

Thermonuclear controlled fusion research is a highly active branch of plasma physics. The main goal is the production of energy from the fusion reaction of hydrogen isotope nuclei, the same reaction that powers stars. The most promising present approach ar ...

Evolution of the early-type galaxy fraction in clusters since z=0.8

Pascale Jablonka, Anja Von der Linden

We study the morphological content of a large sample of high-redshift clusters to determine its dependence on cluster mass and redshift. Quantitative morphologies are based on PSF-convolved, 2D bulge+disk decompositions of cluster and field galaxies on dee ...

Obscured Star Formation In Intermediate-Density Environments: A Spitzer Study Of The Abell 901/902 Supercluster

We explore the amount of obscured star formation as a function of environment in the Abell 901/902 (A901/902) supercluster at z = 0.165 in conjunction with a field sample drawn from the A901 and CDFS fields, imaged with the Hubble Space Telescope as part o ...
