The scaling of reaction yields in light ion fusion to low energies is important for our understanding stellar fuel chains and the development future energy technologies. Experiments become progressively more challenging at lower due exponential drop cross sections below Coulomb barrier. We report on experiments where deuterium-deuterium (D-D) reactions are studied a pulsed plasma glow discharge regime using benchtop apparatus. model conditions particle-in-cell codes. Advantages this approach...
Abstract For the Phase-II Upgrade of ATLAS Detector, Inner Detector will be replaced with Tracker (ITk), consisting a pixel and strip tracker. The 17,888 silicon detector modules comprising ITk tracker assembled from sensors flexes readout chips in manual assembly process performed at 20 module sites complex distribution chain, which requires quality control steps to after each step. Sensor visual inspection full sensor area (about 100 cm 2 ) detect log any defects (e.g. scratches, breakdown...
