Observations of wall conditioning by means of boron powder injection in DIII-D H-mode plasmas
(IOP, 2020-03)We report observations from the DIII-D tokamak indicating that boron (B) powder injection in tokamak plasmas improves wall conditions similarly to glow discharge boronization (GDB). Isotopically enriched B powder (B11 > ... -
Experimental studies of plasma-antenna coupling with the JET Alfven Eigenmode Active Diagnostic
(IOP, 2020-10)This paper presents a dedicated study of plasma-antenna (PA) coupling with the Alfven Eigenmode Active Diagnostic (AEAD) in JET. Stable AEs and their resonant frequencies f, damping rates gamma < 0, and toroidal mode numbers ... -
Ion and electron acoustic bursts during anti-parallel magnetic reconnection driven by lasers
(Nature, 2022-02)Magnetic reconnection converts magnetic energy into thermal and kinetic energy in plasma. Among the numerous candidate mechanisms, ion acoustic instabilities driven by the relative drift between ions and electrons (or ...
