Deuterium neutral beams with energies up to 110 keV were injected into TFTR (Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor) plasmas at low magnetic field such that the beam injection velocities comparable Alfv\'en velocity. Excitation of toroidal eigenmodes was observed by Mirnov coils and emission spectroscopy.
For any given two-body Hamiltonian, there exists a large class of unitarily equivalent Hamiltonians that lead to the same scattering phase shifts at all energies. The purpose this paper is exhibit typical saturation curves for reasonable potentials. binding energy per particle changes by several MeV in either direction, and minimum higher or lower density as increases decreases. Softening potential binding. separation approximation reaction matrix provides qualitative insight into these...
A system for producing 300-μsec bursts of 1017 metal atoms with 3-eV average energy is described. It shown that this can be successfully used to introduce impurities into CTR-oriented tokamaks transport and confinement studies.
The isotopes of nickel are described by a shell model within the identical-nucleon configurations ${(2{p}_{\frac{3}{2}}, 1{f}_{\frac{5}{2}}, 2{p}_{\frac{1}{2}})}^{n}$. A least-squares fit to observed level energies yields an effective interaction which satisfactorily reproduces structure Ni from ${\mathrm{Ni}}^{58}$ ${\mathrm{Ni}}^{65}$. This best-fit is shown indicate repulsive interactions between shells and conserve seniority useful degree approximation. matrix elements in fair agreement...
Using laser-induced fluorescence, measurements have been made of metastable argon-ion, Ar+*(3d4F7/2), velocity distributions on the major axis an axisymmetric magnetic-mirror device whose plasma is sustained by helicon wave absorption. Within mirror, these ions sub-eV temperature and, at most, a subthermal axial drift. In region outside mirror coils, conditions are found where field-parallel above acoustic speed, to energy ∼30 eV, while ion remains low. The supersonic Ar+*(3d4F7/2)...
Experimental results from high-power neutral-beam-injection experiments on the Princeton Large Torus tokamak are reported. At highest beam powers (2.4 MW) and lowest plasma densities [${n}_{e}(0)=5\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{13}$ ${\mathrm{cm}}^{\ensuremath{-}3}$], ion temperatures of 6.5 keV achieved. The collisionality ${{\ensuremath{\nu}}_{i}}^{*}$ drops below 0.1 over much radial profile. Electron heating $\frac{\ensuremath{\Delta}{T}_{e}}{{T}_{e}}\ensuremath{\approx}50%$ has...
The development of noninductive current drive is great importance in establishing the tokamak as a long-pulse or steady-state fusion reactor. Lower hybrid waves, carrying 200 kW power at 800 MHz, have been launched into Princeton Large Torus to initiate and discharge level excess 100 kA.
We have injected short bursts of aluminum into the adiabatic-toroidal-compressor (ATC) tokamak, and measured time evolution radial distribution highly ionized states aluminum. The results are compared with a computer code describing neoclassical impurity diffusion.
A general reaction network for filamentous self-assembly unifies mechanistic descriptions and links the overall scaling behaviour to underlying rate-determining steps.
Measures for controlling antimicrobial resistance are urgently required. We describe here AntibioGame®, a serious game improving the training of medical students in antibiotic use primary care. aimed to design antibiotics teaching and evaluate its usability playability by students. used various gamification techniques (e.g. mascots, avatars, rewards, leader board) cartoon graphics AntibioGame®. This implements clinical case templates built from list learning goals defined team through an...

A number of spectrum lines highly ionized copper, nickel, iron, chromium, and germanium have been observed the corresponding transitions identified. The element under study is introduced into discharge Princeton Large Torus tokamak by means rapid ablation a laser pulse. ionization state generally distinguishable from time behavior emitted light. New identifications are based on predicted wavelengths (from isoelectronic extrapolations other data) approximate expected intensities. All pertain...
The evolution of the density profile in PLT during intense gas puffing is documented and analysed. Measurements spectrum low-energy edge neutrals change central neutral density, indicate that charge-exchange processes alone cannot account for rise. transient changes can be reproduced numerically by a diffusivity ∼ 104 cm2·s−1 spatially averaged inward flow 103 cm·s−1. These transport coefficients are 10—102 times larger than neoclassical. ion energy confinement reduced, small-scale...
