Vibrational excitation and dissociation of deuterium molecule by electron impact
V Laporta, R Agnello, G Fubiani +4
A theoretical investigation of electron-D2 resonant collisions - via the low lying and the Rydberg states of D2- - is presented for vibrational excitation, dissociative electron at…
Vibrational excitation cross sections for non-equilibrium nitric oxide-containing plasma
V Laporta, L Vialetto, V Guerra
A full set of vibrationally-resolved cross sections for electron impact excitation of NO(X2Π, v) molecules is calculated from ab initio molecular dynamics, in the framework of the…
Upgrade of the Diagnostic Neutral Beam Injector for the RFX-mod2 experiment
Marco Barbisan, Marco Boldrin, Luca Cinnirella +8
Diagnostic Neutral Beam Injectors (DNBI), through the combined use of Charge Exchange Recombination Spectroscopy (CHERS) and Motional Stark effect diagnostics (MSE), are a well-kno…
Extent of the Magnetotail of Venus From the Solar Orbiter, Parker Solar Probe and BepiColombo Flybys
Niklas J. T. Edberg, David J. Andrews, J. Jordi Boldú +20
We analyze data from multiple flybys by the Solar Orbiter, BepiColombo, and Parker Solar Probe (PSP) missions to study the interaction between Venus' plasma environment and the sol…
Temperature anisotropy instabilities driven by intermittent velocity shears in the solar wind
Simon Opie, Daniel Verscharen, Christopher H. K. Chen +5
Where and under what conditions the transfer of energy between electromagnetic fields and particles takes place in the solar wind remains an open question. We investigate the condi…
Impact of solar wind turbulence on a planetary bow shock
E. Behar, F. Pucci, C. Simon Wedlund +4
Over the past decades, near-Earth spacecraft observations have provided insights into the physics of the bow shock, suggesting that solar wind intrinsic turbulence influences the b…
Access and sustainment of ELMy H-mode operation for ITER Pre-Fusion Power Operation plasmas using JINTRAC
E. Tholerus, L. Garzotti, V. Parail +15
In the initial stages of ITER operation, ELM mitigation systems need to be commissioned. This requires controlled flat-top operation in type-I ELMy H-mode regimes. Hydrogen or heli…
A study of an air-breathing electrodeless plasma thruster discharge
Jiewei Zhou, Francesco Taccogna, Pablo Fajardo +1
Plasma chemistry of main air components is implemented in a hybrid 2D axisymmetric simulation code to assess the air-breathing concept in an electrodeless plasma thruster. Relevant…
Numerical simulation of a helium Plasma-Material Interaction experiment in GyM linear device through SOLPS-ITER and ERO2.0 codes
F. Mombelli, G. Alberti, E. Tonello +6
Learning how to safely handle Plasma-Material Interaction (PMI) is a key challenge towards the commercialisation of energy from nuclear fusion. In this respect, linear plasma devic…
Evaluation of scale-dependent kurtosis with HelioSwarm
Francesco Pecora, Francesco Pucci, Francesco Malara +4
Plasma turbulence involves complex, nonlinear interactions of electromagnetic fields and charged particles across multiple scales. Studying these phenomena in space plasmas, like t…
Cross-Calibration and First Vertical ECE Measurement of Electron Energy Distribution in the TCV Tokamak
A. Tema Biwole, L. Porte, A. Fasoli +8
This paper describes the first Vertical Electron Cyclotron Emission (V-ECE) measurement of non-thermal electron distributions in the \textit{Tokamak à Configuration Variable}, TCV.…
Large Scale Linear Magnetic Holes with Magnetic Mirror Properties in Hybrid Simulations of Solar Wind Turbulence
Giuseppe Arrò, Francesco Califano, Francesco Pucci +2
Magnetic holes (MHs) are coherent magnetic field dips whose size ranges from fluid to kinetic scale, ubiquitously observed in the heliosphere and in planetary environments. Despite…
Outside and inside a magnetic island: different perspectives to describe the same observables
B. Momo, I. Predebon
We compare three different approaches to describe a magnetic island in a generic toroidal plasma: (i) perturbative, from the perspective of the equilibrium magnetic field and the r…
Normal high velocity solid dust impacts on tiles of tokamak-relevant temperature
Marco De Angeli, Panagiotis Tolias, Francisco Suzuki-Vidal +7
Runaway electron incidence on plasma facing components triggers explosive events that are accompanied by the expulsion of fast solid debris. Subsequent dust-wall high speed impacts…
Higher-Order Analysis of Three-Dimensional Anisotropy in Imbalanced Alfvénic Turbulence
Nikos Sioulas, Themistocles Zikopoulos, Chen Shi +10
We analyze in-situ observations of imbalanced solar wind turbulence to evaluate MHD turbulence models grounded in "Critical Balance" (CB) and "Scale-Dependent Dynamic Alignment" (S…
Comparative study of the kinetic properties of proton and alpha beams in the Alfvénic wind observed by SWA-PAS onboard Solar Orbiter
Roberto Bruno, Rossana DeMarco, Raffaella D Amicis +12
The problems of heating and acceleration of solar wind particles are of significant and enduring interest in astrophysics. The interactions between waves and particles are crucial…
