Deuterium retention in Sn-filled samples exposed to fusion-relevant flux plasmas
Tin (Sn) is an attractive option for a liquid metal wall material for future fusion reactors. Control of tritium inventory is key for the successful operation of these reactors, but little data exists up until now on hydrogen isotope retention in Sn ...

Constraints on Ion Velocity Distributions from Fusion Product Spectroscopy
Recent inertial confinement fusion experiments have shown primary fusion spectral moments which are incompatible with a Maxwellian velocity distribution description. These results show that an ion kinetic description of the reacting ions is necessary. We

On the Role of Mode Resonances in Regulating Zonal-Flow-Moderated Plasma Microturbulence [PDF]
The onset of turbulent heat transport at a higher temperature gradient than the critical gradient of linear instability, known as the Dimits shift, is a recurring feature of nonlinear simulations for magnetically confined fusion plasmas. Resonance in the

Redistribution of fast ions during sawtooth reconnection [PDF]
In a tokamak-based fusion power plant, possible scenarios may include regulated sawtooth oscillations to remove thermalized helium from the core of the plasma. During a sawtooth crash, the helium ash and other impurities trapped in the core are driven by

The endothermic nuclear reaction between thermal tritons and high-energy protons can represent an important contribution to the total neutron yield in tokamak plasmas heated by radio-frequency waves, as the first JET experiments have demonstrated (see ...

Diagnostic Methodologies of Laser-Initiated 11B(p,α)2α Fusion Reactions
The detection of the ionic products of low-rate fusion reactions, and in particular of the 11B(p,α)2α, is one of the recognized main problems in experiments where these reactions are initiated by tailored interaction of intense and high-energy lasers ...

There are two major problems in proton therapy. (1) In comparison with the gamma-ray therapy, proton therapy has only ~ 10% greater biological effectiveness, and (2) the risk of the secondary neutrons in proton therapy is another unsolved problem.

Optimization of pump laser conditions for production of maximum gain of Ne-like Ge soft x-ray laser [PDF]
Laser produced plasma can be used as the sources of soft X-ray laser. The ability to control the laser quality and its gain coefficient by controlling laser and plasma’s parameters is one of the advantages of this method.
