Thermonuclear controlled fusion research is a highly active branch of plasma physics. The main goal is the production of energy from the fusion reaction of hydrogen isotope nuclei, the same reaction that powers stars. The most promising present approach ar ...
Ideal MHD yields at best inconclusive predictions about the stability of the LHD heliotron for ⟨β⟩≥3%. We investigate the impact of the drift stabilization of ballooning modes for the inward shifted LHD configuration (vacuum magne ...
The existence of a critical pressure gradient needed to drive the interchange instability is experimentally demonstrated in the simple magnetized torus TORoidal Plasma EXperiment [A. Fasoli et al., Phys. Plasmas 13, 055902 (2006)]. This gradient is reached ...
The TORoidal Plasma EXperiment (TORPEX) at CRPP generates and confines plasmas in a magnetic configuration with open helical magnetic field lines, in which similarly to the SOL of magnetic fusion devices, grad B and magnetic field curvature are at play. In ...
This thesis addresses the interaction of a supra-thermal ion beam with turbulence in the simple magnetized toroidal plasma of TORPEX. The first part of the thesis deals with the ohmic assisted discharges on TORPEX. The aim of these discharges is the invest ...
Recent simulations of JET and ASDEX Upgrade plasmas with EDGE2D and SOLPS, respectively, showed that upstream radial electric field in the scrape-off layer (SOL) is substantially below values expected from simple estimates, based on the effects of the pote ...
This paper aims to contribute both to the ongoing process of scrape-off layer code-experiment and code-code benchmarking. Results are presented from SOLPS5 simulations of two high power JET H-modes with similar magnetic configuration, concentrating in the ...
One of the most important issues for magnetic-confinement fusion research is the so-called anomalous transport across magnetic field lines, i.e. transport that is in excess of that caused by collisional processes. The need to reduce anomalous transport in ...
The intermittent transport in the JET scrape-off layer has been investigated using a multi-pin reciprocating Langmuir probe system. It was found that radial transport in the far-SOL is not continuous but occurs in short bursts observed most often at the be ...
We report layering transitions within a charged silica colloidal dispersion confined by two opposite like-charged dielectric walls. The ensemble- averaged concentration profiles of the colloids (radius 60 +/- 2 nm) along the confinement direction have been ...
