The paper discusses an experimental demonstration of Bloch oscillations connected with Bragg reflection of electrons from the first miniband edge in superlattices of different silicon carbide polytypes. The original experimental method was geared towards o ...
Compact optimized stellarators offer novel solutions for confining high-beta plasmas and developing magnetic confinement fusion. The three-dimensional plasma shape can be designed to enhance the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) stability without feedback or nearb ...
High-beta, low-aspect-ratio ("compact") stellarators are promising solutions to the problem of developing a magnetic plasma configuration for magnetic fusion power plants that can be sustained in steady state without disrupting. These concepts combine feat ...
A modified coaxial plasma gun in the high density regime of 20-70 mT of He was investigated experimentally and theoretically. Tile injection of the plasma torus into a drift space was studied by diamagnetical diagnostics both with and without helical bias, ...
A fully kinetic assessment of the stability properties of toroidal drift modes has been obtained for nonaxisymmetric (stellarator) geometry, in the electrostatic limit. This calculation is a comprehensive solution of the linearized gyrokinetic equation, us ...
Current profile tailoring by electron cyclotron heating (ECH) and current drive (ECCD) is used to improve central electron energy confinement in the TCV tokamak. Counter-ECCD on axis alone achieves this goal in a transient manner only. A stable scenario is ...
First global linear study of electrostatic drift waves in two realistic quasisymmetric configurations, namely the Quasi-Axially symmetric Stellarator with three fields periods (QAS3) [P. Garabian and L. P. Ku, Phys. Plasma 6, 645 (1999)] and the Helically ...
The polarimeter system for ITER features 10 viewing chords covering almost the full poloidal cross section of the plasma in a fan-like arrangement. The 10 laser beams all enter the plasma via 150 mm diam penetrations through the diagnostic plug at the low- ...
Low aspect ratio tokamaks (LATs) can potentially provide a high ratio of plasma pressure to magnetic pressure beta and high plasma current I at a modest size. This opens up the possibility of a high-power density compact fusion power plant. For the concept ...
The ideal magnetohydrodynamic stability with respect to localized ballooning modes and the Mercier criterion of a quasihelically symmetric stellarator configuration is investigated. Configurations with an enhanced magnetic mirror and a deeper magnetic well ...
