The ITER electron cyclotron (EC) upper port antenna (or launcher) is nearing completion of the detailed design stage and final build-to-print will soon start. main objective this launcher to drive current locally stabilize neoclassical tearing modes (NTMs) (depositing ECCD inside island that forms on either q = 3/2 or 2 rational magnetic flux surfaces) control sawtooth instability (deposit near 1 surface). should be capable steering focused beam deposition location resonant surface over...
Recent advancements in the neutronics activities of IFMIF-DONES project, developed within EUROfusion framework, are presented. These include updates to radiation dose maps during commissioning and normal operation accelerator systems; material irradiation analyses shielding optimization test activation inventories 7Be, 3H, activated corrosion products Li shutdown transportation storage radioactive waste, cooling water atmosphere gas activations, skyshine public, etc. The development...
The IFMIF-DONES Facility is built with the purpose of irradiating materials under DEMO Tokamak-like conditions and a first-of-a-kind project that foreseen to be in Granada, Spain. A systematic top-down approach used design its Systems aid harmonization interaction between them. One these main systems Test which serves as meeting point for other major such Lithium System (LS) Accelerator (AS), while also providing connection Facilities Complementary Experiments (FCE) additional irradiation...
Abstract The IFMIF-DONES Irradiation Modules consist of a set systems designed to be tested in the facility and which are thought produce, future, an extensive, qualified unique fusion-like irradiated experimental data associated materials structures used specific breeding blankets that currently under consideration for EU DEMO fusion reactor. irradiation conditions (neutron fluence spectra) at position inside Test Cell, will comparable expected as reference most exposed zones Nevertheless,...
The IFMIF-DONES Facility is a unique first-class scientific infrastructure whose construction foreseen in Granada, Spain, the coming years. Strong integration efforts are being made at current project phase aiming harmonizing ongoing design of different and complex Systems facility. consolidation Diagnostics Instrumentation, transversal across many them, key element this purpose. A top-down strategy proposed for systematic Review Requirement definition, putting emphasis one-of-a-kind...
The ECRH ITER upper port antenna's role is to stabilize the neoclassical tearing mode (NTM) on either q = 2 or 3/2 rational flux surfaces, which requires a narrow current deposition profile (jCD) over wide range along resonance surfaces. width of jCD should be equivalent marginal island fully stabilise NTM. Two antenna concepts are under consideration for launcher: front steering (FS) and remote (RS). FS launcher decouples focusing aspects using two mirror system (one one steering),...
A consortium consisting of four EURATOM Associations has been set up to develop the project plan for full development ITER bolometer diagnostic and continue urgent R&D activities. An overview current status is given, including detector development, line-of-sight optimization, performance analysis as well design components their integration in ITER. This complemented by presentation plans future activities required successfully implement diagnostic, ranging from over prototype testing RH...
In the IFMIF-DONES neutron source a single accelerator line delivers 125 mA of deuterons at 40 MeV to flowing liquid lithium target with free surface facing deuteron beam. Neutrons fusion-relevant spectrum are generated by stripping reaction and used for material samples irradiation. This report presents numerical thermal–hydraulic structural analysis using updated design system neutronics results. Simulation scope includes assembly, vacuum chamber beam ducts, outlet channel, quench tank...
The front steering (FS) launcher is one of two concepts that have been considered for the ITER electron cyclotron heating upper by European Union. During development a detailed conceptual design, team involved with FS project listed all critical issues associated installing an in port, and then work was concentrated on providing solution to each design issues. A similar procedure performed alternative option (remote launcher). These actions helped International Team evaluate systems choose...
The H7 system was populated in the H2(He8,He3)H7 reaction with a 26 AMeV He8 beam. missing mass energy spectrum, H3 and angular distributions decay frame were reconstructed. spectrum shows peak, which can be interpreted either as unresolved 5/2+ 3/2+ doublet or one of these states at 6.5(5) MeV. data also provide indications 1/2+ ground state located 1.8(5) MeV quite low population cross section ∼25 μb/sr within range θc.m.≃(17°–27°).Received 25 June 2019Revised 13 September...
The extremely neutron-rich system $^{7}$H was studied in the direct $^2$H($^8$He,$^3$He)$^7$H transfer reaction with a 26 AMeV secondary $^{8}$He beam [Bezbakh et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 124 (2020) 022502]. missing mass spectrum and center-of-mass (c.m.) angular distributions of $^{7}$H, as well momentum distribution $^{3}$H fragment frame, were constructed. In addition to investigation reported Ref. 022502], we carried out another experiment same but modified setup, which cross-checked by...
