A series of neutron capture cross section measurements of interest to nuclear astrophysics have been recently performed at n_TOF, the neutron spallation source operating at CERN. The low repetition frequency of the proton beam driver, the extremely high instantaneous neutron flux, and the low background conditions in the experimental area are optimal for capture cross section measurements on low-mass or radioac...
A range of ITER relevant plasma stability issues have been studied in the JET tokamak; these include the effects of fast particles on sawteeth, control of NTMs via sawteeth seeds, scaling of (2,1) NTM thresholds and the effect of error fields on plasma rotation and vice-versa. The sawtooth studies have examined both the effects of ICRF and NBI fast particles, and models used for ITER predictions have been valid...
