Sentences with phrase «instabilities in the plasma»

The revision, reported in July in the journal Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion, employs a subprogram called a «kick model» to simulate the movement of fast ions caused by instabilities in the plasma.

The new capability, developed by physicist Mario Podestà at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL), outfits the code known as TRANSP with a subprogram that simulates the motion that leads to the loss of energetic ions caused by instabilities in the plasma that fuels fusion reactions.

As a consequence, instabilities in the plasma motion and magnetic field occur.

When used on tungsten surfaces in fusion devices, lithium can reduce periodic instabilities in plasma that can damage the reactor walls, scientists have found.

«Here we've shown that we can control optical instabilities in plasma so that rather than randomly scattering energy, they put it where we want it and do so with good collimation and high intensity, producing a bright beam that can be delivered to another target.

Second is instability: the fact that hot plasma doesn't like being confined and so wriggles and bulges in attempts to get free, eventually breaking up altogether.

The second kind of instability (called the mode) causes changes in the entire plasma.

This is a schematic image of trapped electron instability and the mechanism for the suppression of turbulence in deuterium plasma.

In particular conditions those waves grow as time passes, and the so - called «instability» occurs and the plasma becomes turbulent.

about Lithium — it's not just for batteries: The powdered metal can reduce instabilities in fusion plasmas

For example, there was widespread concern based on work by theorists in the early 1970s that certain «drift instabilities» in fusion experiments would cool the plasma and prevent tokamaks from reaching the conditions necessary for fusion to occur.

The researchers found something they had not anticipated that had not previously been seen in the laboratory: When the two plasmas merged they broke into clumps of long thin filaments due to a process called the «Weibel instability.»

In January 2007, physicist Robert Erhlich, who has been modelling Sol's core based upon recent work on magnetic instabilities (Grandpierre and Ágoston, 2005), published calculations on how core magnetic fields may produce small instabilities in the Solar plasma that would induce localized oscillations in temperaturIn January 2007, physicist Robert Erhlich, who has been modelling Sol's core based upon recent work on magnetic instabilities (Grandpierre and Ágoston, 2005), published calculations on how core magnetic fields may produce small instabilities in the Solar plasma that would induce localized oscillations in temperaturin the Solar plasma that would induce localized oscillations in temperaturin temperature.
