Sawtooth control in JET with ITER relevant low field side resonance ICRH and ITER like wall
- 2014

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- New experiments at JET with the ITER like wall show for the first time that ITER-relevant low field side resonance first harmonic ICRH with can be used to control sawteeth that have been initially lengthened by fast particles. In contrast to previous [J. P. Graves et al, Nature Communs 3, 624 (2012)] high field side resonance sawtooth control experiments undertaken at JET, it is found that the sawteeth of L-mode plasmas can be controlled with less accurate alignment between the resonance layer and the sawtooth inversion radius. This advantage, as well as the discovery that sawteeth can be shortened with various antenna phasings, including dipole, indicates that ICRH is a particularly effective and versatile tool that can be used in future fusion machines for controlling sawteeth. Without sawtooth control, NTMs and locked modes were triggered at very low normalised beta. High power H-mode experiments show the extent to which ICRH can be tuned to control sawteeth and NTMs while simultaneously providing effective electron heating with improved flushing of high Z core impurities. Dedicated ICRH simulations using SELFO, SCENIC and EVE, including wide drift orbit effects, explain why sawtooth control is effective with various antenna phasings, and show that the sawtooth control mechanism cannot be explained by enhancement of the magnetic shear. Hybrid kinetic-MHD stability calculations using MISHKA and HAGIS unravel the optimal sawtooth control regimes in these ITER relevant plasma conditions.

Collective Excitations in the Vicinity of N=Z
- 1999. - 1 SUPPL. 1

Ingår i: Proceedings INPC 1998. - 0375-9474. ; 654, s. 659-662

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In our contribution to the INPC98 conference we reported on the experimental investigation of high spin collective states in medium and heavy mass N≈Z nuclei at LNL. The main purpose is to set light on the role of the proton-neutron interaction in the collective behavior of the nucleus. In medium mass N=Z nuclei, in contrast with the stable nuclei, valence protons and neutrons occupy the same orbitals and one may expect a reinforcement of neutron-proton T=0 (np) pairing correlations[1]. In this interesting subject, the medium mass N=Z=36 72Kr has been studied and completely reported in [2]. In this proceedings we will concentrate in unpublished results concerning the onset of collectivity on nearly spherical nuclei in the 100Sn region. In nuclei with Z=50 and Z=49 dipole bands have been found indicating the presence of "Magnetic Rotation" [3].

IN-BEAM gamma-RAY SPECTROSCOPY ABOVE THE HIGH-SPIN ISOMERIC STATE IN Lu-155
- 2013
-
Ingår i: CAPTURE GAMMA-RAY SPECTROSCOPY AND RELATED TOPICS. - : WORLD SCIENTIFIC PUBL CO PTE LTD. ; , s. 139-144

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Excited states in Lu-155 have been studied at the Accelerator Laboratory of the University of Jyvaskyla in Finland. The Lu-155 nuclei were populated using the reaction of Ni-58 on (102)pd at a beam energy of 280 MeV. The nuclei of interest were selected using the RITU gas filled recoil separator and the prompt gamma rays belonging to 155Lu were identified using the recoil-decay tagging technique. The gamma-ray transitions de-exciting the excited states above the high-spin isomeric a-decaying state in Lu-155 have been identified. A gamma-ray coincidence analysis shows that the previously reported level scheme for Lu-155 should be revised.

HIGH-SPIN STUDIES NEAR SN-100 WITH NORDBALL - NEW RESULTS ON IN-102, IN-104 AND SB-108
- 1993
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The NORDBALL detector array has been used in a gamma-ray spectroscopic study of neutron deficient nuclei close to 100Sn. A beam of 270 MeV 58Ni ions was used to bombard a target of Fe-54. Reaction channel separation was achieved with a 4pi charged particle Si-ball together with a 1pi neutron detector wall. Altogether 29 final nuclei were identified and excited states were observed for the first time in 8 of them. The weakest identified channel was 100Cd which represented 4.10(-3) % of the observed total yield. Level schemes Of 102In, 104In and 108Sb constructed from gamma-gamma-particle-coincidence and gamma-gamma-angular correlation analyses are presented. The observed structures are discussed in the framework of the nuclear shell-model. In 108Sb also a deformed, strongly coupled, level sequence is observed. This deformed structure is interpreted as built on a pig9/2(-1)xnuh11/2 configuration in agreement with TRS calculations.

The isospin dependent p-n multiplets in the region of doubly magic Sn-100
- 1996
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Experimental data on p-n multiplets appearing in the nuclei near double-magic Sn-100 accesible in heavy-ion fusion-evaporation experiments have been analyzed. Proton-rich nuclei in this region have been investigated using the NORDBALL array. A Ni-58 beams at energies of 270 Mev on Fe-54 and 261 MeV on Cr-50 targets were used. Reaction channel separation was achieved with a 4 pi charged particle multi-detector set-up together with a 1 pi neutron detector wall placed in the forward direction. On the basis of gamma gamma-coincidence and angular correlation relations a level schemes of several light Sn, In, Sb, Te and I nuclei were observed for the first time in the present experiment. The observed structure of nuclei are discussed in the framework of the nuclear shell-model. The p-n multiplets in the A similar to 100 region corresponding to the nucleon pairs with mixed configurations has been considered as a playground for the tests of the T = 0 and T = 1 parts of the effective interaction.

Implementation of plasma simulators and plasma reconstruction workflows in ITER’s Integrated Modelling & Analysis Suite (IMAS)
- 2017
-
Ingår i: 44th EPS Conference on Plasma Physics, EPS 2017. - : European Physical Society (EPS).

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- IMAS has been installed within the majority of the ITER Members and is being used to support ITPA activities including code benchmarking and validation. Sophisticated workflows, such as Plasma Simulators and those describing H&CD systems, have been adapted to IMAS and applied to ITER scenarios. The framework is considered sufficiently flexible to handle all foreseen approaches to the integrated (probabilistic) determination of measurement parameters (and their errors). The inclusion of UDA within the IMAS data Access Layer has allowed the fetching of IDSs directly from experimental databases and the demonstration of the first plasma reconstruction chain. An interactive Live Display in which signals are selected through a web interface has also been demonstrated.

ICRF-code benchmark activity in the framework of the European task-force on integrated Tokamak Modelling
- 2014
-
Ingår i: AIP Conference Proceedings. - : American Institute of Physics. - 9780735412101 ; , s. 291-294
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The grand aim of the Integrated Tokamak Modelling (ITM) task-force is to provide a flexible, modular and reliable plasma simulator in view of planning and analyzing ITER discharges. Since radio-frequency (rf) heating in the ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF) is foreseen as one of the main additional heating systems in ITER, physics modules that simulate ICRF wave propagation and absorption are necessary for the ITM project. Here, we report on the status of the benchmark activity of ICRF codes, already imported in ITM environment platform. We consider various scenarios for ITER, limiting the comparisons to wave propagation and absorption in Maxwellian plasmas.

Ingår i: RADIOFREQUENCY POWER IN PLASMAS. - : American Institute of Physics (AIP). - 9780735413368

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- As follow-up of the benchmark activity of ICRF full-wave codes within the EUROfusion Code Development for Integrated Modelling project (WPCD), a simple-to-complex approach has been devised for verification of the European ICRF codes, imported in the European-Integrated Modelling infrastructure, which represents a unique environment for input-data sharing and result analysis. This benchmark activity has been recently extended to non-European codes, in particular the ICRF full-wave AORSA code. Here we discussed the results of this benchmark.
