We study the radiation emitted by a cavity moving in vacuum. We give a quantitative
estimate of the photon production inside the cavity as well as of the photon flux radiated from …

Avoidance of the harmful effects of runaway electrons (REs) in plasma-terminating
disruptions is pivotal in the design of safety systems for magnetic fusion devices. Here, we …

CQL3D is a general purpose computer code for modeling auxiliary heating in tokamaks. It
calculates the radial distribution of 2D in momentum-space bounce-averaged, ion and …

Integrated modelling of electron runaway requires computationally expensive kinetic models
that are self-consistently coupled to the evolution of the background plasma parameters. The …

Now that intensity of lasers has reached 10 20 W/cm 2, electron–positron pairs can be
created by the irradiation of such ultraintense lasers on a thin gold foil. The energy of …

Improved understanding of runaway-electron formation and decay processes are of prime
interest for the safe operation of large tokamaks, and the dynamics of the runaway electrons …

Accurate modelling of the interaction between fast electrons and partially ionized atoms is
important for evaluating tokamak disruption mitigation schemes based on material injection …

Energy transfer from electron-cyclotron (EC) waves to the plasma is being routinely used in
tokamaks to heat and drive current through the electron channel. Technical applications …

Electron Bernstein current drive (EBCD) systems in spherical tokamaks are sensitive to
plasma and launch conditions, and therefore require large parametric scans to optimise their …

Improvements in electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) and current drive (ECCD)
predictions are important issues for the design and control of high-performance fusion …
