  1. 6. The Polar Cusp and its Ionospheric footprint : Dynamics and Transients

    Författare :Frédéric Pitout; Ryoichi Fujii; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Space and plasma physics; Solar wind - magnetosphere - ionosphère interactions; polar ionosphere; Rymd- och plasmafysik; Space physics; Rymdfysik; Space Physics; rymdfysik;

    Sammanfattning : The magnetopause, the boundary layer between the solar wind and the Earth’s magnetosphere, is not closed as we have long thought. Transfers of energy, particles and momentum from the solar wind to the magnetosphere actually take place. LÄS MER

  2. 7. The dynamics of Alfvén eigenmodes excited by energetic ions in toroidal plasmas

    Författare :Emmi Tholerus; Torbjörn Hellsten; Thomas Johnson; Lars-Göran Eriksson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fusion plasma physics; tokamak; wave-particle interactions; toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes; bump-on-tail instabilities; magnetohydrodynamics; nonlinear dynamics; quasilinear dynamics; Hamiltonian mechanics; Monte Carlo method; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Experiments for the development of fusion power that are based on magnetic confinement deal with plasmas that inevitably contain energetic (non-thermal) particles. These particles come e.g. from fusion reactions or from external heating of the plasma. LÄS MER

  3. 8. The dynamics of Alfvén eigenmodes excited by energetic ions in toroidal plasmas

    Författare :Emmi Tholerus; Thomas Johnson; Torbjörn Hellsten; Duarte Borba; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fusion plasma physics; Tokamak; Wave–particle interactions; Toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes; Bump-on-tail instabilities; Magnetohydrodynamics; Nonlinear dynamics; Quasilinear dynamics; Hamiltonian mechanics; Monte Carlo method; ICRH; FWCD; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The future fusion power plants that are based on magnetic confinement will deal with plasmas that inevitably contain energetic (non-thermal) particles. These particles come, for instance, from fusion reactions or from external heating of the plasma. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Modelling of laser plasma interaction with applications

    Författare :Benjamin Svedung Wettervik; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; electron wakefield acceleration; ion acceleration; coherent X-ray pulses; plasma; Vlasov-Maxwell equations; continuum methods; radiation generation;

    Sammanfattning : The development of laser systems with ultra-high intensities has both opened up prospects for compact particle accelerators, as well as probing QED-effects, which are present in the high intensity regime. To describe laser matter interaction, it is necessary to self-consistently account for the paths of a large number of particles and the corresponding electromagnetic fields, with the addition of stochastic effects at high laser intensities.

  5. 10. Low-energy ions around comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

    Författare :Sofia Bergman; Gabriella Stenberg Wieser; Martin Wieser; Gert Brodin; Stein Håland; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Low-energy ions; spacecraft charging; comets; 67P Churyumov-Gerasimenko; Rosetta; RPC-ICA; SPIS; diamagnetic cavity; field of view; plasma; space plasma physics; rymd- och plasmafysik; Space and Plasma Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Low-energy ions play important roles in the formation of the plasma environment around a comet. Reliable ways of measuring these ions are therefore of high importance to fully understand the processes and dynamics of this environment. Unfortunately, low-energy ions are infamously difficult to detect. LÄS MER
