The establishment of the University Grants Committee in Britain 1919 called for fundamental thinking as to character and priorities academic communities minimum levels provision — staffing, research facilities, literature support, social amenities, so on necessary any new foundation be ranked more than a primarily vocational training centre. Without assumptions positions these matters could not have done its work. Yet regards libraries, almost no serious debate can found print among scholars...
Abstract A sequence of fuel recovery methods was tested in JET, equipped with the ITER-like beryllium main chamber wall and tungsten divertor, to reduce plasma deuterium concentration less than 1% preparation for operation tritium. This also a key activity regard refining clean-up strategy be implemented at end 2nd DT campaign JET (DTE2) assess tools that are envisaged mitigate tritium inventory build-up ITER.

Abstract Imaging diagnostics in Joint European Torus have become essential the study of plasma wall interactions and protection facing components. During deuterium operations, location these was at close proximity to vessel. However, for 50–50 deuterium-tritium operation, neutron yield impact onto electronics imaging would caused them fail completely locations. Shielding systems from neutrons is achieved by relocating a selected number outside Hall (i.e. other side biological shield wall)....
Abstract The main characteristics of toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes (TAEs) have been successfully investigated in JET (Joint European Torus) using the scheme sweeping-frequency external excitation with tracking synchronously-detected resonances.

The gyrokinetic toroidal code (GTC) has been used to study Alfvén eigenmodes (TAEs) in high-performance plasmas. Experiments performed at the Joint European Torus (JET), where TAEs were driven by energetic particles arising from neutral beams, ion cyclotron resonant heating, and resonantly excited dedicated external antennas, have simulated. Modes populations of are observed, matching TAE frequency seen with magnetic probes JET experiments. A synthetic antenna, composed one two neighboring...
The preparative Gas Chromatographic (GC) system for the JET Active Handling System (AGHS) can separate a daily throughput of up to 20 moles hydrogen isotope gas mixture into pure products T2, D2, and H2 with very small interfractions in between. Design, assembly special parts GC system, various steps chromatographic process including safety aspects, control results inactive commissioning are presented. fulfils its specifications separation. We also describe simple program calculate profiles...
The investigation of the flow over a cylinder with hemispherical nose at an angle attack is presented. Experiments were conducted in 6 ft x low-turbulence tunnel. focus this research separated region as well evaluation and testing new diagnostic tool, fiber-optic laser-Doppler probe. A two-fold contribution offered. On one hand, pressure distributions are provided along fine grid body. other feasibility study presented on use LDV probe which can obtain data from inside model.
After inactive and trace tritium testing, full commissioning of the Active Gas Handling System (AGHS) was performed with 3 g. The main results this phase as well performance AGHS during first weeks Deuterium Tritium Experiment will be discussed.
Gilbert's syndrome is a common inherited disorder, in which genetic defects uridine diphosphate-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 lead to deficient glucuronidation of bilirubin and hence hyperbilirubinaemia. Although usually considered asymptomatic, can be associated with gastrointestinal psychiatric symptoms unexplained by the metabolic defect. Genetic polymorphism closely related enzyme, 1A6, results altered metabolism elimination serotonin. On basis case hyperserotoninaemia absence detectable...
The installation of all AGHS subsystems in compliance with a strict Quality Assurance Programme was completed 1993. Installation followed by end-to-end commissioning signal and control loop connections to the Distributed Control System.

The JET Active Gas Handling System (AGHS) consists of a number interlinked processing systems for recovery the radioactive tritium, its purification, separation from other hydrogen isotopes, storage and recycling to machine. To meet stringent safety requirements multiplicity monitoring, control operational tasks, plant-wide process system was designed integrate all tritium related functions. AGH Control is based on an industrial Distributed (DCS) by Fischer & Porter which tailored specific...
The Active Gas Handling System (AGHS) of JET was designed to provide a closed loop for the supply and recovery tritium during torus operations.
