Neural network predictions of plasma confinement loss in Wendelstein 7-X pellet-fueled discharges
K. C. Hammond, J. -P. Bähner, J. Baldzuhn +17
The energy confinement time is a key parameter of a magnetized fusion plasma, helping to determine whether ignition can occur. Experiments in tokamaks and stellarators have shown t…
Slice Emittance Preservation and Focus Control in a Passive Plasma Lens
J. Björklund Svensson, J. BeinortaitÄ, L. Boulton +15
Strong, symmetrically focusing plasma lenses are promising for accommodating the small beams associated with plasma-based accelerators and collider final foci. However, while focus…
Plasma lens for focusing attosecond pulses
E. Svirplys, H. Jones, G. Loisch +8
Attosecond pulses provide unique opportunities for studies of time-resolved electron dynamics. However, focusing these pulses, typically ranging from the vacuum ultraviolet to the…
Characterization of discharge capillaries via benchmarked hydrodynamic plasma simulations
S. M. Mewes, G. J. Boyle, R. D'Arcy +10
Plasma accelerators utilize strong electric fields in plasma waves to accelerate charged particles, making them a compact alternative to radiofrequency technologies. Discharge capi…
