1. 1. Neutron Spectroscopy : Instrumentation and Methods for Fusion Plasmas

   Författare :Henrik Sjöstrand; Göran Ericsson; Johan Frenje; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Neutron spectroscopy; plasma diagnostics; fusion power; fusion; plasma heating; MPRu; JET; triton burn-up; ITER; neutron yield; calibration; Fusion; Fusion;

   Sammanfattning : When the heavy hydrogen isotopes deuterium (D) and tritium (T) undergo nuclear fusion large amounts of energy are released. At the Joint European Torus (JET) research is performed on how to harvest this energy. Two of the most important fusion reactions, d+d→3He+n (En = 2.5 MeV) and d+t→4He+n (En = 14 MeV), produce neutrons. LÄS MER

3. 2. Resonant magnetic perturbation effect on the tearing mode dynamics : Novel measurements and modeling of magnetic fluctuation induced momentum transport in the reversed-field pinch

   Författare :Richard Fridström; Per Brunsell; Lorenzo Frassinetti; Tommaso Bolzonella; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; RFP; reversed-field pinch; tokamak; tearing mode; RMP; fusion; plasma; resonant magnetic perturbation; stochastic; magnetic; field; viscosity; mode; locking; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Sammanfattning : The tearing mode (TM) is a resistive instability that can arise in magnetically confined plasmas. The TM can be driven unstable by the gradient of the plasma current. When the mode grows it destroys the magnetic field symmetry and reconnects the magnetic field in the form of a so-called magnetic island. LÄS MER

4. 3. Experimental studies of materials migration in magnetic confinement fusion devices : Novel methods for measurement of macro particle migration, transport of atomic impurities and characterization of exposed surfaces

   Författare :Igor Bykov; Henric Bergsåker; Matej Mayer; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fusion; tokamak; RFP; divertor; limiter; SOL; transport; migration; surface analysis; IBA; ion micro beam; beryllium; tritium; Physics; Fysik;

   Sammanfattning : During several decades of research and development in the field of Magnetically Confined Fusion (MCF) the preferred selection of materials for Plasma Facing Components (PFC) has changed repeatedly. Without doubt, endurance of the first wall will decide research availability and lifespan of the first International Thermonuclear Research Reactor (ITER). LÄS MER

5. 4. Tearing mode dynamics in the presence of resonant magnetic perturbations

   Författare :Richard Fridström; Per Brunsell; Marco Cecconello; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tearing mode; plasma; fusion; reversed-field pinch; RFP; magnetic; confinement; resonant; perturbation; magnetohydrodynamics; MHD; EXTRAP T2R; Madison Symmetic Torus; Fysik; Physics;

   Sammanfattning : Magnetically confined fusion (MCF) plasmas are typically subject to several unstable modes. The growth of one mode can limit the plasma energy confinement and might cause a termination of the plasma. Externally applied resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) are used to control and to mitigate some of the unstable modes. LÄS MER

7. 5. Drift-Type Waves in Rotating Tokamak Plasma

   Författare :Elina Asp; Vladimir Pavlenko; Hans Nordman; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Space and plasma physics; fusion; plasma; tokamak; rotation; drift; ship; ITG; TE; Landau; Te Ti; hot-electron; confinement; stiffness; Weiland; Rymd- och plasmafysik; Space physics; Rymdfysik; Space and Plasma Physics; rymd- och plasmafysik;

   Sammanfattning : The concept of energy production through the fusion of two light nuclei has been studied since the 1950’s. One of the major problems that fusion scientists have encountered is the confinement of the hot ionised gas, i.e. the plasma, in which the fusion process takes place. LÄS MER
