Transport properties of disordered 2D complex plasma crystal [PDF]
, 2018 In this work, we investigate numerically the transport properties of a 2D complex plasma crystal using diffusion of coplanar dust lattice waves. In the limit where the Hamiltonian interactions can be decoupled from the non-Hamiltonian effects, we ...

Intense intermittent radiation at the plasma frequency on EAST [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2019 Intense intermittent radiation has been observed regularly in EAST by using a Michelson interfer-ometer and a Q-band radiometer system. The radiation bursts are related to a fast process with characterization time of a few microseconds.

Designing a tokamak fusion reactor—How does plasma physics fit in? [PDF]
, 2015 This paper attempts to bridge the gap between tokamak reactor design and plasma physics. The analysis demonstrates that the overall design of a tokamak fusion reactor is determined almost entirely by the constraints imposed by nuclear physics and fusion ...

Confirmation of the topology of the Wendelstein 7-X magnetic field to better than 1:100,000
Nature Communications, 2016 Early stellarator designs suffered from high particle losses, an issue that can be addressed by optimization of the coils. Here the authors measure the magnetic field lines in the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator, confirming that the complicated design of the

A megawatt-level 28 GHz heating system for the National Spherical Torus Experiment Upgrade
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2015 The National Spherical Torus Experiment Upgrade (NSTX-U) will operate at axial toroidal fields of ≤ 1 T and plasma currents, Ip ≤ 2 MA. The development of non-inductive (NI) plasmas is a major long-term research goal for NSTX-U.
