  76. 51. An analysis of generation, evolution and self-organization of RF-excited trapped plasmas
    Giancarlo Maero
    The dynamics of the flow in magnetized non-neutral plasmas is dominated by the diocotron (Kelvin-Helmholtz) instability, which leads to features like turbulence and self-organization and at the same time yields manipulation opportunities through resonant interaction with external perturbations. Crucial factors in the dynamics and equilibrium of the trapped plasma are the initial conditions and...

    Dr Blomer Jakob (CERN)
    In the last decade, cloud computing has overtaken grid computing as a paradigm of distributed data storage and processing systems at the largest scales.

    Dr Alessandra Giunta (STFC RAL Space)
    The emission of the solar upper atmosphere reflects time-dependent and non-equilibrium effects due to plasma dynamics (e.g. flares, solar transition region). Simplified models which imply zero density approach (coronal picture) and ionisation equilibrium are often adopted in the analysis of the observed spectra. However, in dynamic plasmas, the ionisation states are not relaxed to local...

    JET next D-T campaign is presently scheduled for the year 2019. The main scientific objectives include the assessment of the isotopic effects on various plasma aspects: mainly on confinement, on the threshold to access the H mode and on ELM behaviour. From a technical point of view, the total yield of the entire D-T phase is expected to be 1.7 1021 neutrons, about a factor of six higher than...

    In Tokamaks, plasma emits as a volumetric Soft-X-Ray (SXR) source. Emitted X-rays can give very useful information about plasma stability, shape and impurity content. In the particular case of tokamaks equipped with metallic walls, mainly Tungsten, the interplay between particle transport and MagnetoHydroDynamic (MHD) activity might lead to impurities accumulation and finally to sudden plasma...

    Dr Teddy Craciunescu (1National Institute for Laser, Plasma and Radiation Physics, Bucharest-Magurele, Romania)
    In thermonuclear plasmas, emission tomography use integrated measurements along lines of sight (LOS) to determine the two-dimensional (2-D) spatial distribution of the volume emission intensity. The technique can be applied to gamma-ray, neutron, soft and hard X-ray emissions. The measurements are line integral data obtained by arrays of collimated detectors looking through the plasma along...

    Magnetized non-neutral plasmas confined in electro-magnetostatic traps represent a somewhat simplified system with respect to quasi-neutral plasmas such as those found in high-pressure discharges or fusion machines. At the same time these plasmas retain many physical properties (Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities, transport, turbulence) of the latter systems while offering enhanced confinement and...

    Prediction is one of the main objectives of scientific analysis. Prediction in this sense refers to both modelling and forecasting. The determination of the limits of predictability is an important issue of both theoretical and practical relevance. In the case of modelling time series, reached a certain level in performance in either modelling or prediction, it is often important to assess...

First lasing of FLASH2, this new undulator line driven additionally by the FLASH linear accelerator, was achieved in August 2014 with simultaneous user operation at FLASH1. The wide wavelength range of FLASH spans from approximately 4.2 - 60 nm in the fundamental and down...

  115. 65. THz diagnostics for art conservation at the ENEA center of Frascati
    Dr Emilio Giovenale (ENEA)
    The electromagnetic radiation, in the range from IR to X-rays, is widely used in the field of art conservation and diagnostics. In the last few years a new interest was devoted to the longer wavelengths, in the so called “THz region” of the spectrum, due to the peculiar characteristics of the radiation in this spectral range, that make it ideal for applications in this field [1]: it’s low...

  116. 95. THz Plasma Diagnostics: an Evolution from FIR and Millimeter Waves historical Applications
    Dr Marco Zerbini (ENEA Frascati)
  117. 47. Tomographic Capabilities of the new GEM based SXR diagnostic of WEST
    Dr Didier Mazon (CEA Cadarache)
    The tokamak WEST (Tungsten Environment in Steady-State Tokamak) will start operating by the end of 2016 as a test bed for the ITER divertor components in long pulse operation. In this context, radiative cooling of heavy impurities like tungsten (W) in the Soft X-ray (SXR) range [0.1 keV; 15 keV] is a critical issue for the plasma core performances [1]. Thus reliable tools are required to...

  118. 57. TRANSLATING 3D OPTOACOUSTIC TOMOGRAPHY: FROM PRECLINICAL RESERACH TO CLINICAL TRIALS
    Dr Angelo Ferrario (TomoWave Laboratories, Inc)
    This lecture will discuss development and translation of optoacoustic imaging from the first works that set the basic principles of the technology to the first in vivo images in small animals, to the most recent advances in diagnostic imaging of breast cancer. We also present the design features and technical parameters of the optoacoustic imaging systems required for clinically viable...

  119. 71. Waste processing: new near infrared technologies for material identification and selection
    Dr Mary Cesetti (University of Padova)
    The awareness of environmental issues on a global scale increases the opportunities for waste handling companies. Recovery is set to become all the more important in areas such as waste selection, minerals processing, electronic scrap, metal and plastic recycling, refuse and the food industry. Effective recycling relies on effective sorting. Sorting is a single element of the waste...
