Fast dynamics of radiofrequency emission in plasmas with runaway electrons
P. Buratti, W. Bin, A. Cardinali +9
Radiofrequency emission in the 0.4 - 3 GHz range from FTU plasmas in presence of runaway electrons (RE) has been measured with unprecedentedly high time resolution. Rapid emission…
Towards enhanced performance in fusion plasmas via turbulence suppression by MeV ions
S. Mazzi, J. Garcia, D. Zarzoso +9
Megaelectron volt (MeV) alpha particles will be the main source of plasma heating in magnetic confinement fusion reactors. Yet, instead of heating fuel ions, most of the energy of…
Dynamical Effects of Cosmic Rays on the Medium Surrounding Their Sources
Benedikt Schroer, Oreste Pezzi, Damiano Caprioli +2
Cosmic rays (CRs) leave their sources mainly along the local magnetic field; in doing so they excite both resonant and nonresonant modes through streaming instabilities. The excita…
Integrated real-time supervisory management for off-normal-event handling and feedback control of tokamak plasmas
T. Vu, F. Felici, C. Galperti +7
For long-pulse tokamaks, one of the main challenges in control strategy is to simultaneously reach multiple control objectives and to robustly handle in real-time (RT) unexpected e…
Local and global properties of energy transfer in models of plasma turbulence
Christian L. Vásconez, Denise Perrone, Raffaele Marino +5
The nature of the turbulent energy transfer rate is studied using direct numerical simulations of weakly collisional space plasmas. This is done comparing results obtained from hyb…
Coherent events at ion scales in the inner Heliosphere: \textit{Parker Solar Probe} observations during the first Encounter
Denise Perrone, Roberto Bruno, Raffaella D'Amicis +7
\textit{Parker Solar Probe} has shown the ubiquitous presence of strong magnetic field deflections, namely switchbacks, during its first perihelion where it was embedded in a highl…
The Solar Orbiter Science Activity Plan: translating solar and heliospheric physics questions into action
I. Zouganelis, A. De Groof, A. P. Walsh +182
Solar Orbiter is the first space mission observing the solar plasma both in situ and remotely, from a close distance, in and out of the ecliptic. The ultimate goal is to understand…
Kinetic Entropy-Based Measures of Distribution Function Non-Maxwellianity: Theory and Simulations
Haoming Liang, M. Hasan Barbhuiya, P. A. Cassak +4
We investigate kinetic entropy-based measures of the non-Maxwellianity of distribution functions in plasmas, i.e., entropy-based measures of the departure of a local distribution f…
Perspectives on Physics of ExB Discharges Relevant to Plasma Propulsion and Similar Technologies
Igor D. Kaganovich, Andrei Smolyakov, Yevgeny Raitses +22
This paper provides perspectives on recent progress in the understanding of the physics of devices where the external magnetic field is applied perpendicularly to the discharge cur…
Dissociative electron attachment cross sections for ro-vibrationally excited NO molecule and N- anion formation
V. Laporta, I. F. Schneider, J. Tennyson
Motivated by the huge need of data for non-equilibrium plasma modeling, a theoretical investigation of dissociative electron attachment to the NO molecule is performed. The calcula…
Light pollution in USA and Europe: The good, the bad and the ugly
Fabio Falchi, Riccardo Furgoni, Terrel A. Gallaway +5
Light pollution is a worldwide problem that has a range of adverse effects on human health and natural ecosystems. Using data from the New World Atlas of Artificial Night Sky Brigh…
Post-mortem analysis of tungsten plasma facing components in tokamaks: Raman microscopy measurements on compact, porous oxide and nitride films and nanoparticles
Cédric Pardanaud, David Dellasega, Matteo Passoni +16
Raman microscopy is one of the methods that could be used for future post-mortem analyses of samples extracted from ITER plasma facing. This study shows that this technique is usef…
Kelvin-Helmholtz instability at proton scales with an exact kinetic equilibrium
A. Settino, F. Malara, O. Pezzi +3
The Kelvin-Helmholtz instability is a ubiquitous physical process in ordinary fluids and plasmas, frequently observed also in space environments. In this paper, kinetic effects at…
Mechanical Ventilator Milano (MVM): A Novel Mechanical Ventilator Designed for Mass Scale Production in Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic
C. Galbiati, A. Abba, P. Agnes +145
Presented here is the design of the Mechanical Ventilator Milano (MVM), a novel mechanical ventilator designed for rapid mass production in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to add…
Vibrationally resolved NO dissociative excitation cross sections by electron impact
V. Laporta, J. Tennyson, I. F. Schneider
A theoretical investigation of the dissociative excitation by electron impact on the NO molecule is presented, aiming to make up for the lack of data for this process in the litera…
Permittivity and permeability of epoxy-magnetite powder composites at microwave frequencies
Tommaso Ghigna, Mario Zannoni, Michael Jones +1
Radio, millimetre and sub-millimetre astronomy experiments as well as remote sensing applications often require castable absorbers with well known electromagnetic properties to des…
