Production of a Chiral Magnetic Anomaly with Emerging Turbulence and Mean-Field Dynamo Action

Jennifer Waltraud Schober

In relativistic magnetized plasmas, asymmetry in the number densities of left-and right-handed fermions, i.e., a nonzero chiral chemical potential mu(5), leads to an electric current along the magnetic field. This causes a chiral dynamo instability for a u ...

New insights on divertor parallel flows,E x B drifts, and fluctuations from in situ, two-dimensional probe measurement in the Tokamak a Configuration Variable

Basil Duval, Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Artur Perek, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui, Hugo De Oliveira, Sophie Danielle Angelica Gorno

In situ, two-dimensional (2D) Langmuir probe measurements across a large part of the TCV outer divertor are reported in L-mode discharges with and without divertor baffles. This provides detailed insights into time averaged profiles, particle fluxes, and f ...

Turbulent transport regimes in the tokamak boundary and operational limits

Paolo Ricci, Maurizio Giacomin

Two-fluid, three-dimensional, flux-driven, global, electromagnetic turbulence simulations carried out by using the GBS (Global Braginskii Solver) code are used to identify the main parameters controlling turbulent transport in the tokamak boundary and to d ...

Evidence on the effects of main-chamber neutrals on density shoulder broadening

Basil Duval, Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Umar Sheikh, Marcelo Baquero Ruiz, Artur Perek, Nicola Vianello, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui, Mirko Wensing, Sophie Danielle Angelica Gorno

Evidence that density shoulder broadening is dependent on high main-chamber neutral density is presented. Shoulder broadening does notoccur when the sources for main-chamber neutrals are minimized using divertor baffles and wide gaps to the first wall (sim ...

The accreted nuclear clusters of the Milky Way

Carmela Lardo

A number of the massive clusters in the halo, bulge, and disc of the Galaxy are not genuine globular clusters (GCs) but instead are different beasts altogether. They are the remnant nuclear star clusters (NSCs) of ancient galaxies since accreted by the Mil ...

A Microlensing Accretion Disk Size Measurement in the Lensed Quasar WFI 2026-4536

Frédéric Courbin, Vivien François Bonvin, Martin Raoul Robert Millon

We use 13 seasons of R-band photometry from the 1.2 m Leonard Euler Swiss Telescope at La Silla to examine microlensing variability in the quadruply imaged lensed quasar WFI 2026-4536. The lightcurves exhibit similar to 0.2 mag of uncorrelated variability ...

COSMOGRAIL: XIX. Time delays in 18 strongly lensed quasars from 15 years of optical monitoring star

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Malte Tewes, Eric Gérard Guy Paic, Vivien François Bonvin, Hung-Hsu Chan, Olga Tihhonova, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Aymeric Alexandre Galan, Rémy Elie Joseph, Cameron Alexander Campbell Lemon

We present the results of 15 years of monitoring lensed quasars, which was conducted by the COSMOGRAIL programme at the Leonhard Euler 1.2 m Swiss Telescope. The decade-long light curves of 23 lensed systems are presented for the first time. We complement ...

Kinematic and metallicity properties of the Aquarius dwarf galaxy from FORS2 MXU spectroscopy

Pascale Jablonka

Context. Dwarf galaxies found in isolation in the Local Group (LG) are unlikely to have interacted with the large LG spirals, and therefore environmental effects such as tidal and ram-pressure stripping should not be the main drivers of their evolution. Ai ...

Microlensing Analysis for the Gravitational Lens Systems SDSS0924+0219, Q1355-2257, and SDSS1029+2623

Karina Alexandra Rojas Olate

We use spectroscopic observations of the gravitationally lensed systems SDSS0924+0219(BC), Q1355-2257(AB), and SDSS1029+2623(BC) to analyze microlensing and dust extinction in the observed components. We detect chromatic microlensing effects in the continu ...

Characterizing time intermittency in non-diffusive fast ion transport through plasma turbulence

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Marcelo Baquero Ruiz, Oulfa Chellaï, Fabian Manke

Turbulent fast ion transport has been investigated in astrophisycal, laboratory and fusion plasmas. When gyro- and drift-averaging across plasma structures manifest as non-markovian and non-local effects, this results in generally non-diffusive transport. ...
