Effect of surface porosity of catalytic supports on plasma-assisted catalysis for ammonia synthesis
S. Jaiswal, Zhe Chen, Sankaran Sundaresan +2
A fundamental understanding of plasma-catalyst interactions is important for understanding reaction mechanisms, optimizing the catalyst, and increasing the efficiency of plasma-ass…
Perturbative Determination of Plasma Microinstabilities in Tokamaks
A. O. Nelson, F. M. Laggner, A. Diallo +3
Recently, theoretical analysis has identified plasma microinstabilities as the primary mechanism responsible for anomalous heat transport in tokamaks. In particular, the microteari…
Initial operation and data processing on a system for real-time evaluation of Thomson scattering signals on the Large Helical Device
K. C. Hammond, F. M. Laggner, A. Diallo +11
A scalable system for real-time analysis of electron temperature and density based on signals from the Thomson scattering diagnostic, initially developed for and installed on the N…
Controlling azimuthal spoke modes in cylindrical Hall thruster using a segmented anode
Yuan Shi, Yevgeny Raitses
Azimuthal spoke-like modes commonly occur in ExB discharges. The natural occurrence of the spoke mode is correlated with changes of plasma parameters. Here, instead of allowing the…
