Multi-energy SXR cameras for magnetically confined fusion plasmas (invited).
A compact multi-energy soft x-ray camera has been developed for time, energy and space-resolved measurements of the soft-x-ray emissivity in magnetically confined fusion plasmas. Multi-energy soft x-ray imaging provides a unique opportunity for measuring, simultaneously, a variety of important plasma properties (Te, nZ, ΔZeff, and ne,fast). The electron temperature can be obtained by modeling t...
متن کاملMicrostability of magnetically confined electron-positron plasmas.
It is shown that magnetically confined electron-positron plasmas can enjoy remarkable stability properties. Many of the microinstabilities driving turbulence and transport in electron-ion plasmas are absent if the density is so low that the Debye length is significantly larger than the gyroradius. In some magnetic configurations, almost complete linear stability may be attainable in large parts...
متن کاملElectromagnetic Wall Torques from Magnetically Confined Plasmas
A direct method to measure the localized magnetic shear stress and hence electromagnetic torque or force exerted on a wall by a fluctuating magnetic field is presented. A model of the wall is needed when the magnetic measurements do not include the normal component. Explicit formulas for thin and thick walls are given. Estimates of the force in illustrative Alcator C-Mod tokamak plasmas provide...
متن کاملRunaway expansion in magnetically confined electron plasmas
Magnetic confinement of neutral plasmas in a tokamak is one of the most promising avenues for generating power via nuclear fusion. Plasma disruption and energy loss, however, continue to cause problems even as larger experimental plants are being built. In particular, cyclical disruption of the plasma’s core electron temperature is a persistent but poorly explained phenomenon. In this paper, I ...
متن کاملSize scaling of turbulent transport in magnetically confined plasmas.
Transport scaling with respect to device size in magnetically confined plasmas is critically examined for electrostatic ion-temperature-gradient turbulence using global gyrokinetic particle simulations. It is found, by varying device size normalized by ion gyroradius while keeping other dimensionless plasma parameters fixed, that fluctuation scale length is microscopic in the presence of zonal ...
