Ion temperatures of over 100 million degrees need to be reached in future fusion reactors for
the deuterium–tritium fusion reaction to work. Ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) is a …

This review presents an analysis of the existing concepts for the utilization of electric power
for heating chemical reactors, primarily those designed for heterogeneous catalytic …

Langmuir probe diagnostic on magnetic plasma devices often encounters more challenges
in data processing than in non-magnetized plasmas, the latest itself being far from simple. In …

We investigate theoretically how sheath radio-frequency (RF) oscillations relate to the
spatial structure of the near RF parallel electric field E∥ emitted by ion cyclotron (IC) wave …

The plasma-wall transition is studied by using 1d3V particle-in-cell simulations in the case of
a one dimensional plasma bounded by two absorbing walls separated by 200 Debye …

A European project was undertaken to improve the available SOL ICRF physics simulation
tools and confront them with measurements. This paper first reviews code upgrades within …

The small layer oscillating in front of a radio frequency (rf) biased electrode in an asymmetric
rf plasma discharge without a magnetic field is diagnosed using an rf compensated …

In this paper we implement the stretched-coordinate Perfectly Matched Layer (PML)
technique in [28] to emulate full power absorption outside the simulation domain for time …

The linear waves that propagate in a two fluid magnetised plasma allowing for a non-
gyrotropic perturbed ion pressure tensor are investigated. For perpendicular propagation …

The plasma-wall transition is studied by means of a particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation in the
configuration of a parallel to the wall magnetic field (B), with collisions between charged …
