Synthetic model of gamma-ray emission during DT experiments on the SPARC tokamak
E. Panontin, R. A. Tinguely, J. L. Ball +10
In thermonuclear plasmas, plasma ions undergoing nuclear reactions emit gamma-rays with energies in the MeV range. Their spectroscopy can convey much plasma information, such as th…
