  1. 1. Visible spectroscopic diagnostics : application and development in fusion plasmas

    Författare :Sheena Menmuir; Professor Elisabeth Rachlew-Källne; Lorella Carraro; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; visible spectroscopy; fusion; Doppler shift; Doppler broadening; Plasma physics with fusion; Plasmafysik med fusion;

    Sammanfattning : Diagnostic measurements play a vital role in experiments. Without them we would be in the dark with no way of knowing what was happening; of understanding the processes and behaviour occurring; or even of judging the success or failure of our experiments. The development of fusion plasma devices is no different. LÄS MER

  2. 2. 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

  3. 3. Material characterization for magnetically confined fusion : Surface analysis and method development

    Författare :Petter Ström; Marek Rubel; Per Petersson; Thierry Loarer; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The dream of abundant clean energy has brought scientists and laypeople alike to ponder the possibilities of nuclear fusion since it was established as the energy source of the stars in 1939. Starting from the mid-twentieth century, significant effort has been put into overcoming the technological challenges related to the construction of a power plant, but initial optimism has faded somewhat due to a notable absence of practical outcomes.

  4. 4. Material migration in tokamaks: Studies of deposition processes and characterisation of dust particles

    Författare :Armin Weckmann; Marek Rubel; Per Petersson; Daniel Primetzhofer; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tokamak; fusion; plasma; material migration; particle transport; TEXTOR; PWI; plasma-wall interaction; plasma facing components; PFC; PFM; plasma facing materials; ALT limiter; MoF6; tracer experiment; molybdenum hexafluoride; future energy source; fuel retention; deuterium retention;

    Sammanfattning : Thermonuclear fusion may become an attractive future power source. The most promising of all fusion machine concepts is the tokamak. Despite decades of active research, still huge tasks remain before a fusion power plant can go online. One of these important tasks deals with the interaction between the fusion plasma and the reactor wall. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Impact of material migration on plasma-facing components in tokamaks

    Författare :Alvaro Garcia Carrasco; Marek Rubel; Didier Mazon; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fusion; material migration; wall conditioning; diagnostic mirrors; plasma-facing materials; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Plasma-wall interaction plays an essential role in the performance and safety of a fusion reactor. This thesis focuses on the impact of material migration on plasma-facing components. It is based on experiments performed in tokamaks: JET, TEXTOR and ASDEX Upgrade. LÄS MER
