Global Alfven Eigenmodes in the H-1 heliac [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Recent upgrades in H-1 power supplies have enabled the operation of the H-1 experiment at higher heating powers than previously attainable. A heating power scan in mixed hydrogen/helium plasmas reveals a change in mode activity with increasing heating ...

Toward plasma drifts in EMC3: Implementation of gradient, divergence, and particle tracing schemes

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, Volume 64, Issue 7-8, August-September 2024.
Abstract This paper presents a first implementation of gradient, divergence, and particle tracing schemes for the EMC3 code, a stochastic 3D plasma fluid code widely employed for edge plasma and impurity transport modeling in tokamaks and stellarators.

Assessment of validity of local neoclassical transport theory for studies of electric-field root-transitions in the W7-X stellarator

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
The neoclassical ambipolarity condition governing the radial electric field in stellarators can have several solutions, and sudden transitions (in radius) between these can then take place. The radial position and structure of such a transition cannot be

36. Theory of Stellar Atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the International Astronomical Union, 1970
This report has been prepared by the President with the assistance of the Vice-President, the Members of the Organizing Committee, V. V. Ivanov, P. Conti and of D. G. Hummer. The work of Commission 36 comes in contact with that of many commissions. Some subjects may be dealt with more fully in those reports; some subjects may have been “unlawfully ...

Self-consistent, global, neoclassical radial-electric-field calculations of electron-ion-root transitions in the W7-X stellarator

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
The radial electric field in the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator is computed by means of self-consistent, global, neoclassical simulations using the gyrokinetic particle-in-cell code EUTERPE.

Nonlinear growth of zonal flows by secondary instability in general magnetic geometry

open access: yes, 2017
We present a theory of the nonlinear growth of zonal flows in magnetized plasma turbulence, by the mechanism of secondary instability. The theory is derived for general magnetic geometry, and is thus applicable to both tokamaks and stellarators.

Impurity transport study based on measurement of visible wavelength high-n charge exchange transitions at W7-X

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
A recently installed high-speed charge exchange diagnostic at the W7-X stellarator has been used to identify several high-n Rydberg emission lines near 500 nm following impurity injections.

Rotating saddle trap as Foucault's pendulum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
One of the many surprising results found in the mechanics of rotating systems is the stabilization of a particle in a rapidly rotating planar saddle potential. Besides the counterintuitive stabilization, an unexpected precessional motion is observed.

Theory of Stellar and Extragalactic Jets [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1986
AbstractDifferent types of astrophysical jets are briefly described and the wide differences in their observed properties are emphasized. Various physical mechanisms that have been proposed for creating jets, based on gas dynamical, magnetic, and radiative stresses are briefly reviewed. It is argued that magnetic fields are probably generally important
