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 Tokamak à configuration variable (TCV) features the highest electron cyclotron wave power density available to resonantly heat (ECRH) the electrons and to drive noninductive currents in a fusion grade plasma (ECCD). In more than 15 years of exploitatio ...
This article presents a feasibility study for a motional Stark effect diagnostic on the TCV tokamak. A numerical simulation code has been used to identify the optimal port arrangement and geometrical layout. It predicts the expected measurement accuracy fo ...
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 ...
Computer aided design of powerful gyrotrons for electron cyclotron resonance heating and current drive of fusion plasmas requires adequate physical models and efficient software packages for analysis, comparison and optimization of their electron-optical s ...
Four of the 16 ITER upper port plugs will be devoted to electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) in order to control the magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities. ...

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 a fusion device, the so-called sawtooth instability can lead to the triggering of confinement limiting neoclassical tearing modes. On the other hand, the existence of sawteeth is desirable for the removal of one fusion product, i.e. helium ash from the ...
Here we present the first measurements by collective Thomson scattering of the evolution of fast-ion populations in a magnetically confined fusion plasma. 150 kW and 110 Ghz radiation from a gyrotron were scattered in the TEXTOR tokamak plasma with energet ...
