Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

A two-dimensional microwave imaging reflectometry (MIR) system has been
commissioned on the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) to
characterize 2-D electron density fluctuations. The diagnostic operates in the W-band
(75–110 GHz) and employs a 12-channel poloidal receiver array combined with 8
frequency-tunable sources, providing 96 simultaneous measurement points with...

Oral (Non-Student) / Orale (non-étudiant(e))

Short-pulse, laser-solid interactions provide a unique platform to develop well-characterized laboratory high-energy density (HED) matter conditions to diagnose fundamental properties such as opacity and equations of state. One common method to produce uniform density plasma conditions is through the use of buried layer targets, where a high Z target is embedded within lower Z tamping layers....

Oral (Non-Student) / Orale (non-étudiant(e))

Compact torus (CT) injection is a promising technique for core fueling in large magnetic confinement fusion devices, where the achievable injection velocity is determined by the CT acceleration dynamics. In this work, the acceleration behavior of CT plasma in the Compact torus injector on KTX device (KTX-CTI) is investigated experimentally and theoretically.

Oral (Non-Student) / Orale (non-étudiant(e))

Plasma Immersion Ion Implantation (PIII) is a high-fluence ion implantation technique well-suited for implanting large-area and non-planar targets. For these reasons it has found application in semiconductor wafer processing as well as nitridation of alloys and surface treatment of biomedical implants. A newer application of PIII has been using it to study the effects of particle radiation...

687. Hydrodynamic Tuning of Interfacial Instabilities: Pressure-Controlled Bubble Dynamics at the Heptane-Water Interface

Oral Competition (Graduate Student) / Compétition orale (Étudiant(e) du 2e ou 3e cycle)

Electrical discharges generated at the interface of immiscible liquids (e.g., oil-water) drive rapid emulsification through the formation of cavitation bubbles and re-entrant liquid jets. While the electrical parameters (voltage, pulse width) are commonly used to modulate this interaction, the role of hydrodynamic confinement remains unexplored in organic-aqueous systems. This work presents an...
