    Notes: An overview is given of recent advances toward the realization of high density, high confinement plasmas with radiating mantles in limiter and divertor tokamaks worldwide. Radiatively improved mode discharges on the Torus Experiment for Technology Oriented Research 94 (TEXTOR-94) [Proceedings of the 16th IEEE Symposium on Fusion Engineering, 1995 (Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Piscataway, NJ, 1995), p. 470] have recently been obtained at trans-Greenwald densities (up to n¯/nGW=1.4) with high confinement mode free of edge localized modes (ELM-free H-mode) confinement quality. Experiments in DIII-D [J. Luxon et al., Proceedings of the 11th IAEA Conference on Plasma Physics and Controlled Nuclear Fusion Research (International Atomic Energy Association, Vienna, 1987), Vol. 1, p. 159] divertor plasmas with a low confinement mode edge have confirmed the dramatic changes in confinement observed with impurity seeding on TEXTOR-94. Recent experiment with impurity seeding on the Joint European Torus [Rebut et al., Fusion Eng. Des. 22, 7 (1993)], and the Japanese Atomic Energy Research Institute Tokamak 60 Upgrade [Horiike et al., Fusion Eng. Des. 16, 285 (1991); Hosogane et al., Proceedings of the 16th IAEA Conference on Plasma Physics and Controlled Nuclear Fusion Research Montreal, 1987 (International Atomic Energy Association, Vienna, 1987), Vol. 3, p. 555] have extended high confinement in ELMy H-mode plasmas to higher densities. Finally, recent progress in the physical understanding of radiating mantle plasmas is summarized. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: An overview of the results obtained so far for the radiative I-mode regime on the upgraded Torus Experiment for Technology Oriented Research (TEXTOR-94) [Proceedings of the 16th IEEE Symposium on Fusion Engineering (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Piscataway, NJ, 1995), Vol. 1, p. 470] is given. This regime is obtained under quasistationary conditions with edge neon seeding in a pumped limiter tokamak with circular cross section. It combines high confinement and high β (up to a normalized beta, βn=2) with low edge q values (down to qa=2.8) and high density even above the Greenwald limit together with dominant edge radiative heat exhaust, and therefore shows promise for the future of fusion research. Bulk and edge properties of these discharges are described, and a detailed account is given of the energy and particle confinement and their scaling. Energy confinement scales linearly with density as for the nonsaturated Ohmic Neo-Alcator scaling, but the usual degradation with total power remains. No deleterious effects of the neon seeding on fusion reactivity and plasma stability have been observed. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Single crystals of lithium niobate (LiNbO3) with y-cut orientation were irradiated at GANIL with 5.17 MeV/amu 155Gd ions at a fluence ranging from 1.5×1011 to 6.0×1011 ions cm−2. After irradiation the samples were implanted with europium ions of 70 keV energy at a fixed fluence of 5×1016 ions cm−2. Both irradiations and implantations were performed at room temperature. Thermal treatments in air, in the range 300–1100 °C, were applied to investigate the influence of the preirradiation damage on the thermal evolution of Eu implanted LiNbO3 crystals. Transmission electron microscopy micrographs exhibit the amorphous track formed by high-energy irradiations. Rutherford backscattering spectrometry results show that these amorphous tracks enhance the europium diffusion in depth of the LiNbO3. A diffusion coefficient and an activation energy were estimated to be about 4.2×10−15 cm2 s−1 and 0.42 eV, respectively. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The penetration of chemical reagents through human hair after bleaching has been spatially characterized using infrared microspectroscopy (IMS) with a synchrotron source. Chemical imaging of hair cross sections before and after bleaching was achieved with high contrast, using the peptide and lipid mid-infrared vibrational bands which are characteristic of hair. The ability to make images using functional groups as a contrast mechanism can be applied to studies of other chemical groups, if present, in the structure of the hair. As an example we show how the penetration of an organic active reagent in the hair structure can be quantified with a spatial resolution of few microns.These results demonstrate that synchrotron IMS is a powerful tool for characterizing chemical interactions of hair samples with specific cosmetic materials.〈section xml:id="abs1-2"〉〈title type="main"〉RésuméLa pénétration d'une molécule organique à l'intérieur de cheveux décolorés a été spatialement caractérisée par microspectroscopie infrarouge en utilisant une source de rayonnement synchrotron. Les images en contraste chimique de coupes microtomiques transversales de cheveux ont été obtenues avec un excellent contraste, en utilisant les bandes infrarouges des groupements peptides et lipidiques qui sont caractéristiques de sa structure. La possibilité d'obtenir des images en utilisant les différents groupements fonctionnels présents dans les spectres infrarouges permet d'étudier la répartition d'autres molécules chimiques si elles sont présentes en concentration suffisante dans la structure du cheveu. Cette caractéristique a été utilisée ici pour étudier la pénétration d'une molécule organique à travers la structure du cheveu avec une résolution latérale de quelques microns. Ces résultats démontrent la faisabilité de la microspectroscopie infrarouge par rayonnement synchrotron pour étudier spatialement les interactions entre le cheveu et des produits cosmétiques.

    Notes: Bulk melt textured YBa2Cu3O7−δ samples with single grains of about 24 mm diameter were obtained by use of SmBa2Cu3O7−x seed crystals. The maximum trapped field B0 in the gap between two samples was investigated as function of temperature. B0 increased from 1 T at 77 K to 8.5 T at 51.5 K, which is the highest trapped field achieved in nonirradiated samples. At low temperatures, cracking of the samples was observed under magnetic pressure. In this temperature range, the trapped field is limited by the mechanical strength of the samples, for which a value of 25 MPa was estimated. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: High-quality binary (Nd0.33Sm0.67)Ba2Cu3O7−δ monodomain superconductors were fabricated by the combination of a compositional-controlled melt-processing technique in air and postannealing in Ar. Critical current densities over the whole field range were observed strongly dependent on Ar postannealing while holding superconducting transition temperatures as high as 96 K. The suppressed chemical variation between the rare-earth element (RE: Nd, Sm) and Ba associated with disperse RE2BaCuOy (RE211) precipitate due to the decomposition occurring in Ar postannealing was attributed to the modified flux pinning. This makes Ar postannealing promising to process superconductors with desired properties for various applications. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: High density nanocrystalline MgB2 bulk superconductors with distinctly improved pinning were prepared by mechanical alloying of Mg and B powders at ambient temperatures followed by hot pressing. The nanocrystalline samples reveal high jc=105 A/cm2 at 20 K and 1 T together with an irreversibility line strongly shifted towards higher fields resulting in Hirr(T)∼0.8 Hc2(T), whereas typically Hirr(T)∼0.5 Hc2(T) is observed for untextured bulk samples. These values exceed those of all other reported bulk samples and are in the range of values for thin films. The improved pinning of this material, which mainly consists of spherical grains about 40–100 nm in size, is attributed to the large number of grain boundaries in the nanocrystalline state. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Improved trapped fields are reported for bulk melt-textured YBa2Cu3O7−δ (YBCO) material in the temperature range between 20 and 50 K. Trapped fields up to 12.2 T were obtained at 22 K on the surface of single YBCO disks (with Ag and Zn additions). In YBCO minimagnets, maximum trapped fields of 16 T (at 24 K) and of 11,2 T (at 47 K) were achieved using (Zn+Ag) and Zn additions, respectively. In all cases, the YBCO disks were encapsulated in steel tubes in order to reinforce the material against the large tensile stress acting during the magnetizing process and to avoid cracking. We observed cracking not only during the magnetizing process, but also as a consequence of flux jumps due to thermomagnetic instabilities in the temperature range betweeen 20 and 30 K. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: High trapped fields were found in zinc-doped, bulk melt-textured YBa2Cu3O7−x (YBCO) material showing a pronounced peak effect in the field dependence of the critical current density. Trapped fields up to 1.1 T were found at 77 K at the surface of a YBCO disk (diameter 26 mm, height 12 mm). Very high trapped fields up to 14.35 T were achieved at 22.5 K for a YBCO disk pair (diameter 26 mm, height 24 mm) by the addition of silver and using a bandage made of stainless steel. The pinning forces and trapped fields obtained in bulk YBCO material are compared with results reported for melt-processed NdBa2Cu3O7−x and SmBa2Cu3O7−x.© 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The superconducting transition and the magnetic structure of polycrystalline (HoxY1−x)Ni2B2C have been investigated for x≥0.75 by resistivity measurements and neutron diffraction, respectively. For HoNi2B2C, the well known antiferromagnetic structure with c- and a-axis components existing between 4.5 and 6 K has been confirmed. Whereas for all investigated samples the component having the a-axis modulated structure exists in a narrow temperature range only, the intensity connected to the spiral magnetic state along the c-axis increases for x=0.85 and x=0.75 monotonically as the temperature decreases to the lowest measuring temperature of 1.6 K. Our results strongly suggest that the incommensurate modulated structure along the a-axis is responsible for pair breaking in the investigated (HoxY1−x)Ni2B2C samples. On the other hand, the magnetic spiral structure with c-axis wave vector was found to coexist with superconductivity. A linear suppression of the superconducting transition temperature with increasing Ho content was observed which is in agreement with the Abrikosov–Gor'kov theory. We found a linear scaling with the effective de Gennes factors (x DG) (Ho) for both the superconducting transition and the magnetic ordering temperatures. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.
