Nuclear fusion is understood as an energy reaction that does not emit greenhouse gases,
and it has been considered as a long-term source of low-carbon electricity that is favourable …

Rare earth-barium-copper oxides superconducting tapes are key candidate materials for
high-field magnet applications. The synergetic realization of high-speed growth and high …

This paper presents an overview of results from L–H transition experiments that were
performed at ASDEX Upgrade (AUG) with the aim of identifying the underlying mechanisms …

One of our grand challenges towards fusion energy is the achievement of a high-
performance plasma core coupled to a boundary solution. The high confinement mode (H …

The unique capabilities of the SPARC tokamak mean that it has the potential to contribute
significantly to tokamak science and plasma physics, motivating further collaboration and …

At present, magnetic confinement fusion devices rely solely on absolute neutron counting as
a direct way of measuring fusion power. Absolute counting of deuterium-tritium gamma rays …

Multi-channel, nonlinear predictions of core temperature and density profiles are performed
for the SPARC tokamak (Creely et al 2020 J. Plasma Phys. 86 865860502) accounting for …

Heat treatments are inevitable not only in the production of rare earth barium copper oxide
(REBCO) tapes, but also in their post-processing for applications, typically, in soldering and …

A parallel-wound no-insulation (PWNI) high-temperature superconductor (HTS) coil is a kind
of pancake-shaped no-insulation (NI) coil wound with parallel-stacked HTS tapes, which …

The recent deuterium–tritium campaign in JET-ILW (DTE2) has provided a unique
opportunity to study the isotope dependence of the LH power threshold in an ITER-like wall …
