Characterization of low-temperature plasmas generated by dielectric barrier discharges for bacterial inactivation

Low-temperature plasmas (LTPs) at atmospheric pressure hold great promise for disinfection and sterilization applications. When compared to traditional sterilization technologies like autoclaving, LTPs may offer several benefits, including reduced energy c ...

Re-design of EU DEMO with a low aspect ratio

Hartmut Zohm

The design point that had been chosen for EU DEMO in 2016 is reviewed here and a modification is proposed with a lower aspect ratio. Previously the same aspect ratio, A, was chosen for EU DEMO as in major tokamak experiments including ITER (A = 3.1), and, ...

Hosing of a Long Relativistic Particle Bunch in Plasma

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

Experimental results show that hosing of a long particle bunch in plasma can be induced by wakefields driven by a short, misaligned preceding bunch. Hosing develops in the plane of misalignment, selfmodulation in the perpendicular plane, at frequencies clo ...

High density lithium niobate photonic integrated circuits

Tobias Kippenberg, Rui Ning Wang, Anat Siddharth, Mikhail Churaev, Nikolai Kuznetsov, Zihan Li, Junyin Zhang, Zelin Tan

Photonic integrated circuits have the potential to pervade into multiple applications traditionally limited to bulk optics. Of particular interest for new applications are ferroelectrics such as Lithium Niobate, which exhibit a large Pockels effect, but ar ...

The role of plasma-atom and molecule interactions on power & particle balance during detachment on the MAST Upgrade Super-X divertor

Christian Gabriel Theiler, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh

This paper shows first quantitative analysis of the detachment processes in the MAST Upgrade Super-X divertor (SXD). We identify an unprecedented impact of plasma-molecular interactions involving molecular ions (likely D2+ ), resulting in strong ion sinks ...

Plasma sputtering of biased electrodes in an oblique magnetic field

Stefano Alberti, Ivo Furno, Alessandro Geraldini

The surface erosion of biased electrodes immersed in a radio frequency (RF) plasma was investigated in oblique magnetic fields ranging from 0.1 T to 3.5 T. The plasma potential and density in the vicinity of the biased electrode have been measured using an ...

Gyrokinetic simulation of low-n Alfvenic modes in tokamak HL-2A plasmas

Javier García Hernández, Samuele Mazzi

The turbulence characteristics of plasmas with internal transport barriers in the HL-2A tokamak are analyzed by means of linear gyrokinetic simulations. It is found that turbulence is dominated by the ion temperature gradient (ITG) mode together with large ...

Integrated modelling of neon impact on JET H-mode core plasmas

Yann Camenen, Michele Marin

Nuclear fusion reactor plasmas will need to exhaust a significant proportion of energy flux through radiative processes, to enable acceptable divertor loads. This can be obtained by line radiation from impurities, injected from the plasma edge. There are h ...

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, Ana Francisca Leal Silva Soares, Alban Sublet, Samuel Rey-Mermet

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 ...
