1. Space Plasma Dynamics : Instabilities, Coherent Vortices and Covariant Parametrization
Sammanfattning : The magnetospheric cusps are two funnel-like regions of Earth's magnetosphere where solar wind plasma can have direct access to the ionosphere. The cusps are very dynamic regions where wave-particle interactions continuously take place and redistribute energy among different particle populations. LÄS MER
2. Plasma-Facing Components in Tokamaks : Material Modification and Fuel Retention
Sammanfattning : Fuel inventory and generation of carbon and metal dust in a tokamak are perceived to be serious safety and economy issues for the steady-state operation of a fusion reactor, e.g. ITER. LÄS MER
3. Modelling the integration of Additive Manufacturing technologies in design for space components
Sammanfattning : Products for space applications are traditionally costly and produced in small batches. Moreover, they must be able to withstand extreme environments and meet tough requirements when in operation, as the ability to maintain and repair them is limited. LÄS MER
4. Explorations of University Physics in Abstract Contexts : From de Sitter Space to Learning Space
Sammanfattning : This is a thesis which contributes to research in two different fields: theoretical physics and physics education research. The common link between these two research areas is that both involve explorations of abstract physics and mathematical representations, but from different perspectives. LÄS MER
5. Plasma-Facing Components in Tokamaks : Studies of Wall Conditioning Processes and Plasma Impact on Diagnostic Mirrors
Sammanfattning : Understanding of material migration and its impact on the formation of co-deposited mixed material layers on plasma-facing components is essential for the development of fusion reactors. This thesis focuses on this topic. It is based on experiments performed at JET and TEXTOR tokamaks. LÄS MER
