The acceleration of electrons during a sawtooth crash is demonstrated in various regimes of the TCV tokamak plasma. Simultaneous measurements of electron cyclotron emission from the low field side and from the high field side of the tokamak provide informa ...
The transport of particles in magnetically confined plasmas is of great importance for the development of fusion energy. It will determine techniques for fuelling, for controlling impurity concentrations and for the removal of the alpha particles produced ...
The Tokamak `a Configuration Variable , TCV, addresses scientific questions to improve our understanding of magnetically confined plasmas and our ability to control them in ITER relevant scenarios, and explores avenues to improve the plasma performance on ...
Almost since the first density profile measurements were made in the scrape-off layer (SOL) of the early tokamaks, it has been recognized that the rate of particle transport perpendicular to magnetic surfaces exceeds that expected on the basis of classical ...
The need of durable and abundant energy sources for future ages stimulates the studies of thermonuclear energy sources, based on hot plasma confinement by magnetic fields. The most developed concept of hot plasma trap is the tokamak, where the plasma confi ...
The development of controlled thermonuclear fusion, a quasi-unlimited energy source suitable for large scale electricity production, is one of the main goals of plasma physics research. Among the directions explored to date, the use of toroidal devices cal ...
The Tokamak à Configuration Variable (TCV) programme is based on flexible plasma shaping capabilities together with a powerful electron cyclotron wave (ECW) additional heating for studies of stability, confinement, transport, control and power exhaust. In ...
The performance of tokamaks is usually described in terms of plasma temperature, density and confinement time. The term temperature implies that the plasma is in thermal equilibrium and its particles have maxwellian (normal) velocity distribution. However, ...
Electron cyclotron emission (ECE) measurements are an important component of the diagnostic suite on the Tokamak a Configuration Variable (TCV) [F. Hoffman , Plasma Phys. Controlled Fusion 36, B277 (1994)]. A recently installed, 24-channel dual-conversion ...
In addition to the second harmonic X-mode (X2) electron cyclotron heating (ECH), the TCV ECH system has been completed with three 450 kW gyrotrons operating at the frequency of 118 GHz for third harmonic X-mode (X3) in a top-launch configuration. In the re ...
