Status, Operation, and Extension of the ECRH System at ASDEX Upgrade

Timothy Goodman, Stefan Müller, Hartmut Zohm, Dávid Wágner

The upgraded electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) system at ASDEX Upgrade (AUG) has been routinely used with eight gyrotrons during the last experimental campaign. A further upgrade will replace the existing system of four short-pulse (140 GHz, 2 s, ...

Cross-field plasma blob motion in an open magnetic field line configuration

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Stefan Müller, Benoît Labit, Gennady Plyushchev, Paolo Ricci, Christian Gabriel Theiler

The radial propagation of blobs generated from plasma instabilities is investigated in an open magnetic field line configuration. Blob cross-field velocities and sizes are obtained from internal probe measurements using pattern recognition. By varying the ...

Langmuir probe-based observables for plasma-turbulence code validation and application to the TORPEX basic plasma physics experiment

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Stefan Müller, Mario Ludovico Podesta, Francesca Maria Poli, Benoît Labit, Paolo Ricci, Christian Gabriel Theiler

The methodology for plasma-turbulence code validation is discussed, with focus on the quantities to use for the simulation-experiment comparison, i.e., the validation observables, and application to the TORPEX basic plasma physics experiment [A. Fasoli , P ...

Mid- to late Holocene climate change- an overview

Stefan Müller, Jed Oliver Kaplan

The last 6000 years are of particular interest to the understanding of the Earth System because the boundary conditions of the climate system did not change dramatically (in comparison to larger glacial–interglacial changes), and because abundant, detailed ...

Antenna excitation of drift wave in a toroidal plasma

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Stefan Müller, Mario Ludovico Podesta, Francesca Maria Poli, Benoît Labit, Paolo Ricci

In a magnetized toroidal plasma, an antenna tunable in vertical wave number is used to excite density perturbations. Coherent detection is performed by means of Langmuir probes to directly determine both the wave vector and the plasma response induced by t ...

Turbulence in basic toroidal plasmas

Stefan Müller

This thesis work contributes to the improvement of the experimental assessment of turbulence in fusion-relevant toroidal plasmas via the construction and dedicated exploitation of the TORPEX basic toroidal plasma experiment. Several contributions to the co ...
