Measurement of the plasma generated diamagnetic flux on tokamak a configuration variable (TCV) is used to derive the plasma pressure, as on other magnetic confinement experiments. However, specificities of the device make the measurement more difficult: fo ...
An approximation to a quasi-omnigenous structure of the magnetic field strength has been numerically obtained by optimization of the magnetic configuration of a conventional heliotron/torsatron. This configuration shows very good collisionless confinement ...
The low aspect ratio of the mega amp spherical tokamak (MAST) allows differentiation between different forms of the H-mode threshold scaling. With optimized fuelling using inboard puffing, and a connected double null divertor (DND) magnetic configuration, ...
This paper shows the importance and feasibility of real-time tomography in fusion experiments for the example of soft X-ray (SXR) position measurements. The requirement of non-magnetic real-time diagnostics in low frequencies for ITER is discussed. This is ...
A neutron-scattering study of nonsuperconducting La2-xSrxCaCu2O6 (x=0 and 0.2), a bilayer copper oxide without CuO chains, has revealed an unexpected tetragonal-to-orthorhombic transition with a doping dependent transition temperature. The predominant stru ...
The effects of applied radial electric fields on the stability of ion temperature gradient (ITG) modes and trapped particle modes are investigated with a full radius gyrokinetic formulation in both axisymmetric and helically symmetric configurations. The v ...
Strategies for the improvement of quasiaxisymmetric stellarator configurations are explored. Calculations of equilibrium flux surfaces for candidate configurations are also presented. One optimization strategy is found to generate configurations with impro ...
Retarding field analyzers (RFAs) are essentially the only practical tool with which to measure the distribution of ion energies in the boundary plasma of magnetic fusion devices. The technique has long been attempted in such facilities with varying degrees ...
The radially local magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) ballooning stability of a compact, quasiaxially symmetric stellarator (QAS), is examined just above the ballooning beta limit with a method that can lead to estimates of global stability. Here MHD stability is a ...
Recent results from the ASDEX Upgrade experimental campaigns 2001 and 2002 are presented. An improved understanding of energy and particle transport emerges in terms of a 'critical gradient' model for the temperature gradients. Coupling this to particle di ...
