Overview of the JET results in support to ITER

X. Litaudon, +1228 more
- 15 Jun 2017 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the 2014-2016 JET results in the light of their significance for optimising the ITER research plan for the active and non-active operation, stressing the importance of the magnetic configurations and the recent measurements of fine-scale structures in the edge radial electric.
Journal ArticleDOI

Absorption of lower hybrid waves in the scrape off layer of a diverted tokamak

TL;DR: In this paper, the lower hybrid current drive (LHCD) system on the Alcator C-Mod tokamak was investigated under plasma conditions relevant to future tokak experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

GaN/NbN epitaxial semiconductor/superconductor heterostructures.

TL;DR: The demonstration of the direct epitaxial growth of high-quality semiconductor heterostructures and devices on crystalline nitride superconductor opens up the possibility of combining the macroscopic quantum effects of superconductors with the electronic, photonic and piezoelectric properties of the group III/nitride semiconductor family.
Journal ArticleDOI

20 years of research on the Alcator C-Mod tokamak

Martin Greenwald, +91 more
- 25 Nov 2014 - 
TL;DR: The Alcator C-Mod tokamak as discussed by the authors is a high-field toroidal confinement device that uses high-power radio frequency (RF) waves for heating and current drive with innovative launching structures.
