Plasma Separation Process: Betacell (BCELL) code: User's manual. [Bipolar barrier junction]

Description: The emergence of clearly defined applications for (small or large) amounts of long-life and reliable power sources has given the design and production of betavoltaic systems a new life. Moreover, because of the availability of the plasma separation program, (PSP) at TRW, it is now possible to separate the most desirable radioisotopes for betacell power generating devices. A computer code, named BCELL, has been developed to model the betavoltaic concept by utilizing the available up-to-date sour… more

ITER disruption modeling using TSC (Tokamak Simulation Code)

Description: Design of the ITER vacuum vessel (VV) is driven strongly by disruption-induced forces. We use the Tokamak Simulation Code (TSC) to model disruptions for the ITER physics phase (I{sub p} = 22 MA) and predict the time evolution of currents and forces on the VV. For a plasma vertically displaced to Z{sub axis} = {minus}1.0m before disruption and decaying at a rate of < dI{sub p}/dt > {approx equal} {minus}1.0MA/ms, the induced VV current peaks at 18 MA. The maximum radial VV force F{sub R} is 56 M… more

High Average Power, High Energy Short Pulse Fiber Laser System

Description: Recently continuous wave fiber laser systems with output powers in excess of 500W with good beam quality have been demonstrated [1]. High energy, ultrafast, chirped pulsed fiber laser systems have achieved record output energies of 1mJ [2].
