Empirical Study of Ne in H-Mode Pedestal in DIII-D

Description: There is compelling empirical [1] and theoretical [2] evidence that the global confinement of H-mode discharges increases as the pedestal pressure or temperature increases. Therefore, confidence in the performance of future machines requires an ability to predict the pedestal conditions in those machines. At this time, both the theoretical and empirical understanding of transport in the pedestal are incomplete and are inadequate to predict pedestal conditions in present or future machines.

Local Effects of Biased Electrodes in the Divertor of NSTX

Description: The goal of this paper is to characterize the effects of small non-axisymmetric divertor plate electrodes on the local scrape-off layer plasma. Four small rectangular electrodes were installed into the outer divertor plates of NSTX. When the electrodes were located near the outer divertor strike point and biased positively, there was an increase in the nearby probe currents and probe potentials and an increase in the LiI light emission at the large major radius end of these electrodes. When an ā€¦ more

Epicyclic Twin-helix Magnetic Structure for Parametric-resonance Ionization Cooling

Description: ParaĀ­metĀ­ric-resĀ­oĀ­nance IonĀ­izaĀ­tion CoolĀ­ing (PIC) is enĀ­viĀ­sioned as the final 6D coolĀ­ing stage of a high-luĀ­miĀ­nosĀ­iĀ­ty muon colĀ­lidĀ­er. ImĀ­pleĀ­mentĀ­ing PIC imĀ­posĀ­es strinĀ­gent conĀ­straints on the coolĀ­ing chanĀ­nel's magĀ­netĀ­ic opĀ­tics deĀ­sign. This paper preĀ­sents a linĀ­ear opĀ­tics soĀ­luĀ­tion comĀ­patĀ­iĀ­ble with PIC. Our soĀ­luĀ­tion conĀ­sists of a suĀ­perĀ­poĀ­siĀ­tion of two opĀ­poĀ­site-heĀ­licĀ­iĀ­ty equal-peĀ­riĀ­od and equal-strength heĀ­liĀ­cal dipole harĀ­monĀ­ics and a straight norĀ­mal quadrupoleā€¦ more

Shielding of a hadron in a finite e-beam

Description: The thorough study of coherent electron cooling, the modern cooling technique capable to deal with accelerators operating in the range of few TeVs, rises many interesting questions. One of them is a shielding dynamics of a hadron in an electron beam. Now this effect is computed analytically in the infinite beam approximation. Many effects are drastically different in finite and infinite plasmas. Here we propose a method to compute the dynamical shielding effect in a finite cylindrical plasma - ā€¦ more

Progress of Bep Treatments on Nb at JLAB

Description: Recent experimental results have indicated that Buffered Electropolishing (BEP) is a promising candidate for the next generation of surface treatment technique for Nb superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities to be used in particle accelerators. In order to lay the foundation for using BEP as the next generation surface treatment technique for Nb SRF cavities, some fundamental aspects of BEP treatments for Nb have to be investigated. In this report, recent progress on BEP study at JLab is ā€¦ more

Can Data Recognize Its Parent Distribution?

Description: This study is concerned with model selection of lifetime and survival distributions arising in engineering reliability or in the medical sciences. We compare various distributions, including the gamma, Weibull and lognormal, with a new distribution called geometric extreme exponential. Except for the lognormal distribution, the other three distributions all have the exponential distribution as special cases. A Monte Carlo simulation was performed to determine sample sizes for which survival disā€¦ more

Microstructure, Phase Formation, and Stress of Reactively-Deposited Metal Hydride Thin Films

Description: This document summarizes research of reactively deposited metal hydride thin films and their properties. Reactive deposition processes are of interest, because desired stoichiometric phases are created in a one-step process. In general, this allows for better control of film stress compared with two-step processes that react hydrogen with pre-deposited metal films. Films grown by reactive methods potentially have improved mechanical integrity, performance and aging characteristics. The two reacā€¦ more
