The correlation of edge plasma current, electric field and divertor condition in tokamak

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2022
The particle transport in divertor region of current size tokamak can be affected by electric field (E) significantly through the E × B drift. The plasma current, which is associated with drifts closely, affects E.

Investigation of the particle accumulation effects on the power exhaust of snowflake minus divertor on HL-2M tokamak by SOLPS-ITER

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2020
To solve the power exhaust handling challenge, meanwhile maintaining acceptable divertor target erosion, the snowflake divertor (SFD) is proposed on HL-2M tokamak. In this work, simulations are carried out by using scrape-off layer plasma simulation code

A new type of stellarator divertor: the hybrid stellarator divertor

open access: yes, 2021
A new type of stellarator divertor is found. It has features of both a nonresonant divertor (A. Punjabi and A. H. Boozer, Phys. Plasmas 27, 012503 (2020)) as well as a resonant divertor. It has the outermost confining surface with sharp edges and large islands outside the outermost surface. For this reason, we have called it hybrid divertor.

Analysis of indefinite divertor footprint with proper orthogonal decomposition in hydrogen/deuterium plasmas in LHD

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2019
Divertor particle flux signals on divertor plates were analyzed with the multivariable analysis technique, namely, proper orthogonal decomposition (POD), to characterize the indefinite divertor footprint in the Large Helical Device.

Conduction-based model of the Scrape-Off Layer power sharing between inner and outer divertor in diverted low-density tokamak plasmas

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2019
A simple analytic model for the repartition of the Scrape-Off Layer (SOL) exhaust power between the inner and outer divertors in a diverted low-density tokamak plasma is introduced. Electron heat conduction is assumed to dominate the heat transport, from

Interpretations of the impact of cross-field drifts on divertor flows in DIII-D with UEDGE

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2017
Simulations using the multi-fluid code UEDGE indicates that, in low confinement (L-mode) plasmas in DIII-D, poloidal projection of the ionization driven flows dominate poloidal particle flows in the divertor near the divertor plates, whereas E ×B drift ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Experimental evidence for the drift wave nature of the weakly coherent mode in ASDEX Upgrade I-mode plasmas

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
The improved energy confinement mode (I-mode) is a potential candidate for future fusion power plants, as it combines ELM-free operation with good confinement. The unusual edge transport and turbulence in this regime is still not fully understood.

Adenosine triphosphate as a modulator of protein interactions and stability

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ATP is best known as the cell's energy currency, but it also shapes how proteins fold, interact, aggregate and form biomolecular condensates. This review explains the emerging physical principles behind these effects, including weak binding to charged protein regions, magnesium‐dependent behaviour and concentration‐dependent control of protein ...

Global Rather Than Vertical‐Selective Saccadic Abnormalities in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To test whether vertical saccades are preferentially affected in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP). Methods PSP patients (n = 24) were compared to age‐matched controls (n = 94) and two degenerative groups (Alzheimer's disease, n = 20; Lewy body disease, n = 50).
