Target Design for XUV Probing of Radiative Shock Experiments

U. Chaulagain, C. Stehlé, P. Barroso +4

Radiative shocks are strong shocks characterized by plasma at a high temperature emitting an important fraction of its energy as radiation. Radiative shocks are commonly found in m…

The JOREK non-linear extended MHD code and applications to large-scale instabilities and their control in magnetically confined fusion plasmas

M Hoelzl, GTA Huijsmans, SJP Pamela +50

JOREK is a massively parallel fully implicit non-linear extended MHD code for realistic tokamak X-point plasmas. It has become a widely used versatile code for studying large-scale…

Bremsstrahlung emission and plasma characterization driven by moderately relativistic laser-plasma interactions

Sushil Singh, Chris D. Armstrong, Ning Kang +22

Relativistic electrons generated by the interaction of petawatt-class short laser pulses with solid targets can be used to generate bright X-rays via bremsstrahlung. The efficiency…

Radiative characterization of supersonic jets and shocks in a laser-plasma experiment

H Bohlin, F-E Brack, M Cervenak +21

The interaction of supersonic laser-generated plasma jets with a secondary gas target was studied experimentally. The plasma parameters of the jet, and the resulting shock, were ch…

Attosecond betatron radiation pulse train

Vojtěch Horný, Miroslav Krůs, Tünde Fülop

High-intensity X-ray sources are essential diagnostic tools for science, technology and medicine. Such X-ray sources can be produced in laser-plasma accelerators, where electrons e…

Recent progress towards a quantitative description of filamentary SOL transport

D. Carralero, M. Siccinio, M. Komm +22

A summary of recent results on filamentary transport, mostly obtained in the ASDEX-Upgrade tokamak (AUG), is presented and discussed in an attempt to produce a coherent picture of…

Spatiotemporal analysis of the runaway distribution function from synchrotron images in an ASDEX Upgrade disruption

M. Hoppe, L. Hesslow, O. Embreus +14

Synchrotron radiation images from runaway electrons (REs) in an ASDEX Upgrade discharge disrupted by argon injection are analyzed using the synchrotron diagnostic tool SOFT and cou…

Generation of ultrafast electron bunch trains via trapping into multiple periods of plasma wakefields

Grigory Golovin, Vojtěch Horný, Wenchao Yan +5

We demonstrate a novel approach to the generation of femtosecond electron bunch trains via laser-driven wakefield acceleration. We use two independent high-intensity laser pulses,…

Phase control of a z-current driven plasma column

S. Kawata, T. Karino, Y. J. Gu

A dynamic mitigation is presented for sausage and kink instability growths of a z-current driven magnetized plasma column. We have proposed a dynamic mitigation method based on a p…

Systematic errors in tokamak magnetic equilibrium reconstruction: a study of EFIT++ at tokamak COMPASS

K. Jirakova, O. Kovanda, J. Adamek +2

Uncertainties and errors in magnetic equilibrium reconstructions are a wide-spread problem in interpreting experimental data measured in the tokamak edge. This study demonstrates e…
