  1. 1. Kinetic modelling of runaway in plasmas

    Author : Ola Embréus; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fokker-Planck equation; synchrotron radiation; plasma; runaway; bremsstrahlung; Boltzmann equation;

    Abstract : The phenomenon of runaway occurs in plasmas in the presence of a strong electric field, which overcomes the collisional friction acting on the charged particles moving through the plasma. A subpopulation of particles can then be accelerated to energies significantly higher than the thermal energy. READ MORE

  2. 2. Synchrotron radiation from runaway electrons in plasmas

    Author : Adam Stahl; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; runaway electrons; critical electric field; fusion plasma physics; tokamak; synchrotron radiation;

    Abstract : Highly relativistic runaway electrons are of great concern in the area of fusion energy research, since their presence in tokamak plasmas have the potential to hinder the successful and stable operation of the device, and potentially cause severe structural damage. In this thesis, runaway electron generation dynamics is investigated using the newly developed efficient computational tool CODE. READ MORE

  3. 3. Momentum-space dynamics of runaway electrons in plasmas

    Author : Adam Stahl; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; synchrotron radiation; tokamak; critical electric field; non-linear collision operator; slide-away; runaway electrons; fusion-plasma physics;

    Abstract : Fast electrons in a plasma experience a friction force that decreases with increasing particle speed, and may therefore be continuously accelerated by sufficiently strong electric fields. These so-called runaway electrons may quickly reach relativistic speeds. READ MORE

  4. 4. Structural and functional studies on ribonucleotide reductase protein B2 from Escherichia coli

    Author : Margareta Karlsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ribonucleotide reductases; Eshcerichia coli;

    Abstract : Ribonucleotide reductase catalyzes the reduction of ribonucleotidesto the corresponding deoxyribonucleotides, the building blocks forDNA. The enzyme from Escherichia coli consists of two proteins.Bl and B2. Protein B2 contains two dinuclear iron centers and astable tyrosyl radical. READ MORE

  5. 5. Bio-coal for the sustainable industry : A scientific approach to optimizing production, storage, and usages

    Author : Aekjuthon Phounglamcheik; Kentaro Umeki; Markus Broström; Capucine Dupont; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

    Abstract : Bio-coal produced from biomass is a promising material to replace fossil coal in order to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emission from the industrial sector. Bio-coal with quality comparable to that of fossil coal can be produced by high-temperature pyrolysis at ≥500 ºC, but the production efficiency is relatively low due to low bio-coal yield at high pyrolysis temperatures.
