A New Approach Toward Extreme Thermal Stability of Femtosecond Laser Induced Modifications in Glasses

Laser &Photonics Reviews, Volume 19, Issue 3, February 5, 2025.
Femtosecond laser irradiation inside Al2O3‐SiO2 and ZrO2‐Al2O3‐SiO2 glasses can induce polarization‐controlled birefringent nanostructures, along with local precipitation of refractory nanocrystals like tetragonal ZrO2 or mullite. These structures yield a persisting positive index contrast with extraordinary thermal stability (>1600 °C), opening a ...

Ion‐Mediated Tearing and Kink Instabilities in the Earth's Magnetosphere: Hybrid‐Vlasov Simulations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract We explore the three‐dimensional structure of ion‐kinetic instabilities in a thin current layer using a hybrid‐Vlasov simulation of the Earth's magnetosphere. The simulation shows the simultaneous growth of tearing and kinking instabilities, which develop in the Sun‐Earth and dawn‐dusk directions, respectively, within the magnetotail current ...

Environmental dose rate assessment of ITER using the Monte Carlo method [PDF]

Nuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2014
Exposure to radiation is one of the main sources of risk to staff employed in reactor facilities. The staff of a tokamak is exposed to a wide range of neutrons and photons around the tokamak hall.

Integrated tokamak modeling: when physics informs engineering and research planning

, 2017
Modeling tokamaks enables a deeper understanding of how to run and control our experiments and how to design stable and reliable reactors. We model tokamaks to understand the nonlinear dynamics of plasmas embedded in magnetic fields and contained by ...

Optimizing Radiation Shielding for Fusion Maintenance Facilities: Insights From a Comprehensive Analysis of ITER Hot Cell

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
One of the primary goals of the ITER project is to demonstrate the safety characteristics of a fusion device, particularly in terms of radiation management. Radiation protection during maintenance periods is of special concern, as personnel performing maintenance‐like activities will be exposed to delayed gamma fields from numerous and complex ...

Convective and Orographic Origins of the Mesoscale Kinetic Energy Spectrum

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 51, Issue 21, 16 November 2024.
Abstract The mesoscale spectrum describes the distribution of kinetic energy in the Earth's atmosphere between length scales of 10 and 400 km. Since the first observations, the origins of this spectrum have been controversial. At synoptic scales, the spectrum follows a −3 spectral slope, consistent with two‐dimensional turbulence theory, but a ...

X‐ray lens figure errors retrieved by deep learning from several beam intensity images

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, Volume 31, Issue 5, Page 1001-1009, September 2024.
A neural network trained with a few thousand simulations using random errors is demonstrated to predict accurately the lens error profile that accounts for all aberrations of a compound refractive lens in a synchrotron beamline.The phase problem in the context of focusing synchrotron beams with X‐ray lenses is addressed.

Nonlinear stabilization of tokamak microturbulence by fast ions. [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 2013
Nonlinear electromagnetic stabilization by suprathermal pressure gradients found in specific regimes is shown to be a key factor in reducing tokamak microturbulence, augmenting significantly the thermal pressure electromagnetic stabilization.
