The fusion reaction between deuterium and tritium, D(T,n)4He is the main source of energy in future thermonuclear reactors. Alpha-particles (4He-ions) born with an average energy of 3.5MeV transferring energy to the thermal plasma during their slowing down, they should provide the self-sustained D-T

This work studies the influence of RF waves in ICRH range of frequency on fusion alphas during recent JET D-T campaign. Fusion alphas from D-T reactions are born with energies of about 3.5MeV and therefore have significant Doppler shift enabling synergistic interaction between them and RF waves at broad range of frequencies including the ones fo…

The fusion reaction between deuterium and tritium, D(T,n)4He is the main source of energy in future thermonuclear reactors. Charged fusion products of this reaction, α-particles (4He-ions), are born with an average energy of 3.5 MeV. Transferring energy to the thermal plasma during their slowing down, the…

The fusion-born alpha-particle heating in magnetically confined fusion machines is a high priority subject for study. The self-heating of thermonuclear fusion plasma by alpha-particles was observed in recent deuterium-tritium (D-T) experiments on the Joint European Torus (JET). This observation was possible by conducting so-called “af…

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 …
