Magnetic turbulence is observed at the beginning of current quench in intended TEXTOR disruptions. Runaway electron (RE) suppression has been experimentally found magnetic larger than a certain threshold. Below this threshold, generated RE inversely proportional to level turbulence. The originates from background plasma and amplitude depends strongly on toroidal field density. These results explain previously threshold for generation have be considered predictions ITER.

A new physical mechanism of formation runaway electron beams during plasma disruptions in tokamaks is proposed. The disruption caused by a strong stochastic magnetic field formed due to nonlinearly excited low-mode number magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) modes.

Experimental evidence supporting the theory of hot tail runaway electron (RE) generation has been identified in TEXTOR disruptions. With higher temperature, more REs are generated during thermal quench. Increasing RE by increasing an obvious plateau is observed even with low toroidal magnetic field (1.7 T). These results explain previously found density threshold for generation.

Abstract This work aimed to enhance a resolution of the electron diffraction pattern by improving longitudinal and lateral coherence beam. Using uniform magnetic field slits is cheap straightforward method. However, such magnet requires larger space. Smaller solenoids which create non-uniform are more applicable, especially when space was limited. bTherefore, effect on energy spread beam investigated numerically experimentally. The simulation results agreed well (within 10%) with...
The loss of runaway electrons during an induced disruption is recorded by a synchrotron imaging technique using fast infrared CCD camera. predominantly diffuse.
