Controlled Surface Modification to Revive Shallow NV- Centers

Klaus Kern, Aparajita Singha, Dinesh Kevin Mathais Pinto

Near-surface negatively charged nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers hold excellent promise for nanoscale magnetic imaging and quantum sensing. However, they often experience charge-state instabilities, leading to strongly reduced fluorescence and NV coherence ti ...

Development of the self-modulation instability of a relativistic proton bunch in plasma

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Patrick Blanchard, Yanis Andrebe, Riccardo Agnello, Christine Stollberg, Sun Hee Kim, Alban Sublet, Shuai Liu

Self-modulation is a beam-plasma instability that is useful to drive large-amplitude wakefields with bunches much longer than the plasma skin depth. We present experimental results showing that, when increasing the ratio between the initial transverse size ...

Model-based electron density estimation using multiple diagnostics on TCV

Olivier Sauter, Federico Alberto Alfredo Felici, Cristian Galperti

Estimation of the dynamic evolution of the electron plasma density during a tokamak discharge is crucial since it directly affects the plasma performance, confinement and stability. Therefore it needs to be monitored and controlled. Knowledge of the densit ...

Sheath collapse at critical shallow angle due to kinetic effects

Alessandro Geraldini

The Debye sheath is known to vanish completely in magnetised plasmas for a sufficiently small electron gyroradius and small angle between the magnetic field and the wall. This angle depends on the current onto the wall. When the Debye sheath vanishes, ther ...

Vlasov simulation of the emissive plasma sheath with energy-dependent secondary emission coefficient and improved modeling for dielectric charging effects

Guang-Yu Sun

A one-dimensional Vlasov-Poisson simulation code is employed to investigate the plasma sheath considering electron-induced secondary electron emission (SEE) and backscattering. The SEE coefficient is commonly treated as constant in a range of plasma simula ...

Excitation of Alfven eigenmodes by fusion-born alpha-particles in D-He-3 plasmas on JET

Henri Weisen, Javier García Hernández

Alfven eigenmode (AE) instabilities driven by alpha-particles have been observed in D-He-3 fusion experiments on the Joint European Torus (JET) with the ITER-like wall. For the efficient generation of fusion alpha-particles from D-He-3 fusion reaction, the ...

Global fluid simulation of plasma turbulence in a stellarator with an island divertor

Paolo Ricci, Joaquim Loizu Cisquella, Maurizio Giacomin, António João Caeiro Heitor Coelho

Results of a three-dimensional, flux-driven, electrostatic, global, two-fluid turbulence simulation for a five-field period stellarator with an island divertor are presented. The numerical simulation is carried out with the GBS code, recently extended to s ...

A spectroscopic inference and SOLPS-ITER comparison of flux-resolved edge plasma parameters in detachment experiments on TCV

Basil Duval, Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Artur Perek, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh, Mirko Wensing

This work presents the use of a collisional-radiative model to infer plasma parameters from 2D emissivities of several deuterium Balmer lines. The emissivities were obtained by MANTIS, an absolutely calibrated, ten-camera imaging polychromator with

Experimental confirmation of efficient island divertor operation and successful neoclassical transport optimization in Wendelstein 7-X

Jieping Zhu, Jonathan Graves, Eduardo Sanchez, Joaquim Loizu Cisquella, Xiaoxue Han, Nicola Vianello, Jonathan Marc Philippe Faustin, Alberto Bottino, Emiliano Fable, Thomas Binderup Jensen, Attila Bencze, Antoine Baillod, Mike Machielsen, Michel Haas, Ajay Kumar, Shuai Liu, Hui Wang, Hartmut Zohm, Konstantinos Avramidis, Frank Rüdiger Wagner, Gregory Vogel, Sheng Xu, Adnan Ali

We present recent highlights from the most recent operation phases of Wendelstein 7-X, the most advanced stellarator in the world. Stable detachment with good particle exhaust, low impurity content, and energy confinement times exceeding 100 ms, have been ...
