Stars as thermonuclear reactors: their fuels and ashes 1
Atomic nuclei are transformed into each other in the cosmos by nuclear reactions inside stars: – the process of nucleosynthesis. The basic concepts of determining nuclear reaction rates inside stars and how they manage to burn their fuel so slowly most of the time are discussed. Thermonuclear reactions involving protons in the hydrostatic burning of hydrogen in stars are discussed first. This i...
متن کاملLower hybrid current drive at densities required for thermonuclear reactors
For the progress of the thermonuclear fusion energy research based on the tokamak concept, it is essential to drive current non-inductively in high-density plasmas for producing steady state, thermally well insulated, stable and large volume plasmas. ITER (International Tokamak Experiment Reactor), as an example, will have relatively high densities at the periphery of the plasma column (ne_0.8 ...
متن کاملCurrent drive at plasma densities required for thermonuclear reactors.
Progress in thermonuclear fusion energy research based on deuterium plasmas magnetically confined in toroidal tokamak devices requires the development of efficient current drive methods. Previous experiments have shown that plasma current can be driven effectively by externally launched radio frequency power coupled to lower hybrid plasma waves. However, at the high plasma densities required fo...
متن کاملGeographically Isolated Wetlands are Important Biogeochemical Reactors on the Landscape
Wetlands provide many ecosystem services, including sediment and carbon retention, nutrient transformation, and water quality improvement. Although all wetlands are biogeochemical hotspots, geographically isolated wetlands (GIWs) receive fewer legal protections compared with other types of wetlands because of their apparent isolation from jurisdictional waters. Here, we consider controls on bio...
