Destabilization of tokamak pressure-gradient driven instabilities by energetic alpha populations (open access)

Destabilization of tokamak pressure-gradient driven instabilities by energetic alpha populations

Alpha particle populations can significantly alter existing MHD in stabilities in tokamaks through kinetic effects and coupling to otherwise stable shear Alfven waves. Here we consider resonances of the trapped alpha precessional drift with both the usual ballooning mode diamagnetic frequency ({omega}{sub *i}/2) and the toroidicity induced Alfven eigenmode (TAE). This is examined for noncircular tokamaks in the high-n ballooning limit using an isotropic alpha slowing down distribution and retaining the full energy and pitch angle dispersion in the alpha drift frequency. Applying this to CIT and ITER indicates that ballooning instabilities can persist at {Beta}'s below the ideal MHD threshold. These are especially dominated by the destabilization of the TAE mode. In addition, a hybrid fluid-particle approach for simulating alpha effects on pressure-gradient driven instabilities is described. 13 refs., 6 figs.

Nonambipolarity, orthogonal conductivity, poloidal flow, and torque (open access)

Nonambipolarity, orthogonal conductivity, poloidal flow, and torque

Nonambipolar processes, such as neutral injection onto trapped orbits or ripple-diffusion loss of ..cap alpha..-particles, act to charge a plasma. A current j/sub r/ across magnetic surfaces must arise in the bulk plasma to maintain charge neutrality. An axisymmetric, neoclassical model of the bulk plasma shows that these currents are carried by the ions and exert a j/sub r/B/sub theta/R/c torque in the toroidal direction. A driven poloidal flow V/sub theta/ = E/sub r/'c/B must also develop. The average current density <j/sub r/> is related to the radial electric field E/sub r/' = E/sub r/ + v/sub /phi//B/sub theta//c in a frame moving with the plasma via the orthogonal conductivity <j/sub r/> = sigma/sub /perpendicular//E/sub r/', which has the value sigma/sub /perpendicular// = (1.65epsilon/sup 1/2/)(ne/sup 2/..nu../sub ii//M..cap omega../sub theta//sup 2/) in the banana regime. If an ignited plasma loses an appreciable fraction ..delta.. of its thermonuclear ..cap alpha..-particles by banana ripple diffusion, then the torque will spin the plasma to sonic rotation in a time /tau//sub s/ approx. 2/tau//sub E//..delta.., /tau//sub E/ being the energy confinement time. 10 refs., 1 fig.

[Research in theoretical nuclear physics]. Progress report

Research in progress and plans for future investigations are summarized briefly for the following topics: microscopic cluster or resonating-group theory (multiconfiguration studies, effects of antisymmetrization in the nucleon-nucleus interaction, application to p + {alpha} bremsstrahlung), RPA ground state correlations, collisions of deformed nuclei, energy dependence of charge-pickup reactions, alpha-capture reactions in medium-weight nuclei, quantum hydrodynamic approach to nuclear matter, neutron stars and pulsars, transverse momentum distributions, intermittency and other correlations, photon and dilepton production, electroweak theory at high temperature, and fractional statistics.

Shock recovery experiments: An assessment (open access)

Shock recovery experiments: An assessment

Systematic shock recovery experiments, in which microstructural and mechanical property effects are characterized quantitatively, constitute an important means of increasing our understanding of shock processes. Through studies of the effects of variations in metallurgical and shock loading parameters on structure/property relationships, the micromechanisms of shock deformation, and how they differ from conventional strain rate processes, are beginning to emerge. This paper will highlight the state-of-the-art in shock recovery of metallic and ceramic materials. Techniques will be described which are utilized to ''soft'' recover shock-loaded metallic samples possessing low residual strain; crucial to accurate ''post-mortem'' metallurgical investigations of the influence of shock loading on material behavior. Illustrations of the influence of shock assembly design on the structure/property relationships in shock-recovered copper samples including such issues as residual strain and contact stresses, and their consequences are discussed. Shock recovery techniques used on brittle materials will be reviewed and discussed in light of recent experimental results. Finally, shock recovery structure/property results and VISAR data on the /alpha/--/omega/ shock-induced phase transition in titanium will be used to illustrate the beneficial link between shock recovery and ''real-time'' shock data. 26 refs., 3 figs.

The high-density Z-pinch as a pulsed fusion neutron source for fusion nuclear technology and materials testing (open access)

The high-density Z-pinch as a pulsed fusion neutron source for fusion nuclear technology and materials testing

The dense Z-pinch (DZP) is one of the earliest and simplest plasma heating and confinement schemes. Recent experimental advances based on plasma initiation from hair-like (10s ..mu..m in radius) solid hydrogen filaments have so far not encountered the usually devastating MHD instabilities that plagued early DZP experiments. These encouraging results along with debt of a number of proof-of principle, high-current (1--2 MA in 10--100 ns) experiments have prompted consideration of the DZP as a pulsed source of DT fusion neutrons of sufficient strength (/dot S//sub N/ greater than or equal to 10/sup 19/ n/s) to provide uncollided neutron fluxes in excess of I/sub ..omega../ = 5--10 MW/m/sup 2/ over test volumes of 10--30 litre or greater. While this neutron source would be pulsed (100s ns pulse widths, 10--100 Hz pulse rate), giving flux time compressions in the range 10/sup 5/--10/sup 6/, its simplicity, near-time feasibility, low cost, high-Q operation, and relevance to fusion systems that may provide a pulsed commercial end-product (e.g., inertial confinement or the DZP itself) together create the impetus for preliminary considerations as a neutron source for fusion nuclear technology and materials testings. The results of a preliminary parametric systems study (focusing primarily on physics issues), conceptual …
