An initial concept for the plasma diagnostic and control (D&C) system has been developed
as part of European studies towards the development of a demonstration tokamak fusion …

Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) is one of the most damaging and costly pests to invade
temperate horticultural regions in recent history. Conventional control of this pest is …

The first recording of Drosophila suzukii in the UK occurred in the south of England during
August 2012. Since then sticky traps have continued to record the presence of individuals …

This report summarizes the status of several R&D tasks devoted to characterization of the
basic behavior and definition of some features of the RF discharge mirror cleaning systems …

Nuclear fusion is an extremely attractive option for future generations to compete with the
strong increase in energy consumption. Proper control of the fusion plasma is mandatory to …

First mirrors are the key element of all optical and laser diagnostics in ITER. Facing the
plasma directly, the surface of the first mirrors could be sputtered by energetic particles or …

For the fusion reactor ITER, a mandatory monitor of the fusion device and plasma will be
performed with optical diagnostic systems. For the metallic first mirrors, the recovery of the …

The development and design of the CXRS diagnostic for the core plasma of ITER is used as
a pretext to elaborate on several of the main challenges of optical diagnostics on such a …
