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 ...
Results are presented from the JET Trace Tritium Experimental (TTE) campaign using minority tritium (T) plasmas (n(T)/n(D) < 3%). Thermal tritium particle transport coefficients (D-T, nu(T)) are found to exceed neo-classical values in all regimes, except i ...
ELMy H-modes in helium-4 plasmas provide valuable information on ELMy H-mode physics as well as a possible early low activation operational phase for next-step tokamaks, such as ITER. With this in mind, a series of helium-4 H-mode experiments were performe ...
The present paper reviews the status of the knowledge on materials for fusion power plants, pointing out that they constitute one of the main key issues on the path to future reactors. Specific issues concerning plasma-facing materials, functional material ...
With use of a multimachine pedestal database, essential issues for each regime of ELM types are investigated. They include (i) understanding and prediction of pedestal pressure during type I ELMs, a reference operation mode of a future tokamak reactor; (ii ...
Neoclassical transport and a particle confinement are analysed for three 3-D reactor designs-the QAS3, the ST/sphellamak hybrid and the sphellamak-using the VENUS code. It is observed that neither the QAS3 nor the ST/sphellamak is truly aquasi-axisymmetric ...
Efficient laser isotope sepn. is demonstrated in 2 distinct schemes. Irradn. of the collisional zone of the gas expansion provokes an isotopically selective condensation, as well as changes in the velocity distributions of the free jet. The resulting large ...
The large physical size of the JET tokamak, its heating systems and diagnostics, and its capability to operate with full deuterium-tritium (D-T) plasmas, including high-power tritium neutral beam injection (NBI), give it unique possibilities in fast partic ...
Predictions from a gyrokinetic toroidal plasma model reproduce for the first time the evolution of Alfven eigenmode (AE) dampings over a range of discharges. The coupling between shear-and kinetic-Alfven waves is responsible for the main source of damping ...
The particle confinement in a magnetized plasma torus with superimposed vertical magnetic field is modeled and measured experimentally. The formation of an equilibrium characterized by a parallel plasma current canceling out the grad B and curvature drifts ...
