Prototype Optical Bionic Microphone with a Dual-Channel Mach–Zehnder Interferometric Transducer
A prototype optical bionic microphone with a dual-channel Mach–Zehnder interferometric (MZI) transducer was designed and prepared for the first time using a silicon diaphragm made by microelectromechanical system (MEMS) technology.

Quasi-coherent fluctuations limiting the pedestal growth on Alcator C-Mod: experiment and modelling [PDF]
Performance predictions for future fusion devices rely on an accurate model of the pedestal structure. The candidate for predictive pedestal structure is EPED, and it is imperative to test the underlying hypotheses to further gain confidence for ITER ...

The I-mode confinement regime at ASDEX Upgrade: global propert ies and characterization of strongly intermittent density fluctuations [PDF]
Properties of the Imode confinement regime on the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak are summarized. A weak dependence of the power threshold for the LI transition on the toroidal magnetic field strength is found.

Tir Is Essential for the Recruitment of Tks5 to Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli Pedestals. [PDF]
Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) is a bacterial pathogen that infects the epithelial lining of the small intestine and causes diarrhea. Upon attachment to the intestinal epithelium, EPEC uses a Type III Secretion System to inject its own high ...

Direct Gyrokinetic Comparison of Pedestal Transport in JET with Carbon and ITER-Like Walls [PDF]
This paper compares the gyrokinetic instabilities and transport in two representative JET pedestals, one (pulse 78697) from the JET configuration with a carbon wall (C) and another (pulse 92432) from after the installation of JET's ITER-like Wall (ILW ...

Overview of the JET results in support to ITER [PDF]
The 2014–2016 JET results are reviewed in the light of their significance for optimising the ITER research plan for the active and non-active operation. More than 60 h of plasma operation with ITER first wall materials successfully took place since its

Formation and structure of transport barriers during confinement transitions in toroidal plasma
Density pedestal formation is studied experimentally during spontaneous low-to-high confinement transitions in the H-1 heliac. Poloidally extended potential structures, or zonal flows, seem to play the major role both in the spatial structure and in the ...
