Synchrotron radiation intensity and energy of runaway electrons in EAST tokamak

A detailed analysis of the synchrotron radiation intensity and energy of runaway electrons is presented for the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak(EAST). In order to make the energy of the calculated runaway electrons more accurate, we take the Shafranov shift into account. The results of the analysis show that the synchrotron radiation intensity and energy of runaway electrons did not reach the maximum at the same time. The energy of the runaway electrons reached the maximum first, and then the synchrotron radiation intensity of the runaway electrons reached the maximum.We also analyze the runaway electrons density, and find that the density of runaway electrons continuously increased. For this reason, although the energy of the runaway electrons dropped but the synchrotron radiation intensity of the runaway electrons would continue rising for a while.     

On bremsstrahlung radiation of accelerated electrons in solar flares

We have calculated the spectrum and polarization of the bremsstrahlung hard X-ray radiation produced by nonrelativistic electrons that are accelerated during a solar flare. The distribution function of accelerated electrons is taken from the self-consistent solution of the kinetic equation allowing for Coulomb collisions and an electric field of reverse current in plasma. The computed polarization of the hard X-ray polarization is shown to be appreciably lower than the value given by simplified thick-target models without considering the reverse current.

EAST 装置等离子体逃逸电子同步辐射行为的实验研究

通过红外可见内窥镜诊断系统对EAST 等离子体芯部逃逸电子的同步辐射功率谱进行了分析,得出低能段逃逸电子同步辐射主要在红外波段,随着逃逸电子能量的增加,同步辐射向短波方向移动进入可见光波段。在欧姆放电条件下,对逃逸电子同步辐射所产生的的红外可见光进行了成像分析,同时研究了EAST 等离子体在低杂波和中性束注入加热条件下的逃逸电子行为。实验结果显示,低杂波和NBI 的投入总体抑制电子的逃逸,但低杂波投入初期产生的快电子对逃逸电子的产生具有促进作用。

Effect of runaway electrons on the ionisation equilibria and radiation of Tokamak impurities

The results of calculations of the ionisation equilibria and radiative cooling of Tokamak impurities are given as a function of electron temperature. In the relevant rate coefficients, the Maxwellian distribution of electron energies has been assumed to be distorted by a runaway tail caused by the finite electric field in a Tokamak. In order to investigate the effect of runaways on the start-up phase of a Tokamak, non-steady-state calculations have also been performed.     

High energy electrons in the earth's radiation belts

Special experiments performed aboard the space stations Salyut-6-SoyuzProgress, Salyut-7-Soyuz T-13-Kosmos-1669, and the artificial earth satellite IK Bolgariya-1300 discovered, significant electron and positron fluxes with energies of more than decades of MeV in the earth's radiation belts. Spatial and angular characteristics of these fluxes have been studied. Study of the charge ratio of the electron-positron component has shown that it is electron-based. This indicates that in outer space near the earth some efficient mechanism capable of accelerating electrons to energies of more than decades of MeV exists.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 9, pp. 38–43, September, 1986.The authors consider it their pleasant duty to express gratitude to V.

Coherent bremsstrahlung of relativistic electrons in antiferromagnets

The coherent bremssstrahlung (CB) of relativistic electrons in antiferromagnetic crystals is studied theoretically. It is shown that the internal magnetic field of an antiferromagnet has a negligible effect on CB. The complete CB spectrum is calculated for hematite, -Fe₂O₃.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 2, pp. 57–61, February, 1988.     

Energy limit of runaway electrons in the HT-7 tokamak

The energy limit of runaway electrons in the HT-7 tokamak is investigated by measuring the synchrotron radiation originated from the runaway electrons and the hard X-ray radiation (HXR) when they hit the first wall. An upper boundary on the runaway energy can appear due to the resonance between the electron gyromotion and the magnetic field ripple in the low field side. The experimental derived maximum energy in the core is about 26 MeV, and maximum energy in the edge region is blocked to no more than 5 MeV. This resonance interaction of runaways with the nth harmonic of the magnetic field ripple can account for the observed energy gap of the runaways.

Transverse runaway of hot electrons and the electron-temperature approximation

This paper discusses the transverse runaway effect in the electron-temperature approximation. The combinations of scattering mechanisms and the corresponding threshold electric fields for which transverse runaway develops are determined. It is shown that the transverse-runaway effect is not associated with any approximation. Zh. éksp. Teor. Fiz. 113, 688–692 (February 1998)     

Differential conductivity at the transverse runaway of hot electrons

Differential conductivity under the transverse runaway of hot electrons is investigated. Quasi-elastic scattering and electronic-temperature approximations are considered for equilibrium and heated phonon subsystem. In both approximations, the differential conductivity is shown to tend to infinity, keeping the sign. Phonon heating retards transverse runaway.     

Measurement of the polarization bremsstrahlung of relativistic electrons in polycrystalline targets

The spectra of the collimated polarization bremsstrahlung of 7-MeV electrons intersecting Al, Cu, and Ni polycrystalline films have been measured. Detailed quantitative comparison of the experimental data with theoretical predictions has been performed. It has been shown that the model of a polycrystal as an ensemble of randomly oriented single crystals adequately describes the experimental results. This makes it possible to expect the development of a new method of diagnostics of the atomic structure of partially ordered solids.
