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 ...
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 ...
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 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 ...
In the search of a fusion reactor using magnetic confinement of toroidal plasmas, many important plasma performance parameters directly depend on the shape of the plasma cross-section. The unique shaping capability of the TCV tokamak ("Tokamak à Configurat ...
A multi-purpose saddle coil system is proposed as part of a future upgrade of TCV (Tokamak à Configuration Variable). This system consists of 3 rows of 8 coils, each coil having independent power supplies, and provides simultaneously error field correction ...
A key issue for steady-state tokamak operation is to determine the edge conditions that are compatible both with good core confinement and with the power handling and plasma exhaust capabilities of the plasma facing components (PFCs) and divertor systems. ...
Stable, high-performance operation of a tokamak requires several plasma control problems to be handled simultaneously. Moreover, the complex physics which governs the tokamak plasma evolution must be studied and understood to make correct choices in contro ...
In the last two experimental campaigns, the low aspect ratio NSTX has explored physics issues critical to both toroidal confinement physics and ITER. Experiments have made extensive use of lithium coatings for wall conditioning, correction of non-axisymmet ...
Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities and plasma rotation have various impacts on particle and thermal transport in toroidal plasmas. MHD instabilities degrade the confinement, limit the maximum achievable plasma pressure, and can lead to plasma disrupti ...
