Capacitive plasma pickup is a well-known and difficult problem for plasma-facing edge diagnostics. Ths problem must be addressed to ensure an accurate and robust interpretation of the real signal measurements versus noise. JET’s Faraday cup fast ion loss detector array is particularly prone to this issue and can be used as a …

This paper describes the development of electromagnetic plasma burn-through model. Full circuit equations describing the currents in solenoid, poloidal field coil, and toroidally conducting passive structure have been integrated into the differential equation system of the plasma energy and particle balances in DYON. This enables consistent calcula…

In this work, the Universal Equation of States (UES) is revisited and generalised by including ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic configurations. The energy of a system is calculated by means of three parameters, namely, the energy, volume and corresponding scaling volume (directly related to the bulk modulus) at the local ground state of the corr…

A new method for the calculation of Shutdown Dose Rates (SDDR) has been developed, the Novel-1-Step (N1S) method. The new method retains the benefits of only requiring a single radiation transport calculation, as in the use of the direct-1-step (D1S) method, while removing the need for pre-calculations to determine dominant nuclides and time corr…

As the international tokamak ITER is being built, non-linear MHD simulations are playing an essential role in active research, understanding, and prediction of tokamak plasmas for the realisation of a fusion power plant. The development of MHD codes like JOREK is a key aspect of this research effort, and provides invaluable insight into the plasma …

The contribution provides a concise overview of ion beam analysis methods and pro- cedures in studies of materials exposed to fusion plasmas in controlled fusion devices with magnetic confinement. An impact of erosion-deposition processes on the morphology of wall materials is- presented. In particular, results for deuterium analyses are discussed.…

Helium ash alpha-particles at 100keV in magnetically confined fusion plasmas may have the same Larmor radius, as well as cyclotron frequency, as the energetic beam-injected deuterons that heat the plasma. While the velocity-space distribution of the helium ash is monotonically decreasing, that of the energetic deuterons is a delta-function in…

For robotic systems involved in challenging environments it is crucial to be able to 2 identify faults as early as possible. In challenging environments it is not always possible to explore 3 all of the fault space, thus anomalous data can act as a broader surrogate, where a anomaly 4 may represent a fault or a predecessor to a fault. This paper…

A local flux expansion method has been proposed for estimating the strike point position for the advanced divertor configuration on MAST Upgrade tokamak. The paper discusses the application and assesses the performance of the technique on a long-legged divertor plasma configuration on an operating device – the DIII-D tokamak. A comparison of …
