The Motion Magnification has recently been introduced for the characterization of motions present in common digital videos, gaining significant theoretical and practical interest. This application is made feasible and cost-effective by the confinement of the dynamic response to the low frequencies, which allows for the use of low-cost cameras and simplified processing of the acquired data. In...

The interaction of a high-intensity laser with matter generates plasma. The subsequent laser-plasma interaction is responsible for the emission of radiation spanning from radiofrequencies up to gamma-rays. The X-rays emitted by the plasma are mainly related to the electrons. Under some assumptions, it is possible to consider a Maxwellian velocity distribution for these electrons, and the...

When a high-intensity laser interacts with matter, it generates strong electromagnetic pulses (EMPs). These EMPs propagate into the surrounding space from the interaction point and can reach peak electric-field amplitudes in the order of MV/m over a broad frequency range, from MHz to THz, even at large distances from the source. These radiations can be harmful to surrounding...

New nuclear fusion devices under construction, such as ITER, and under design, such as DEMO, are foreseen to have long intervals between shutdowns, to increase the machine's duty cycle.

However, it will be necessary to periodically monitor the machine's plasma-facing components (PFCs) getting information on the areas of erosion, redeposition and mixing of the eroded materials with the... -

In many applications, knowing neutron cross sections is fundamental for accurate quantitative evaluations, including (n, cp) reactions that produce protons, deuterons, tritons, and alpha particles. Investigating these mechanisms is crucial for assessing radiation damage in tokamak structural materials [1] (notably Be, Fe, Mo, and W in blankets and divertors) and evaluating delivered doses in...

Microwave reflectometry probes the plasma either in Ordinary (O-mode) or Extraordinary (X-mode) polarisation, with cut-offs depending, respectively, on the electron density alone or on both density and magnetic field. Operating both modes over the same line of sight extends the measurements to the very edge of the plasma via the X-mode upper cut-off, while the cross-comparison of simultaneous...

MiniTRUST has been developed as a scaled engineering device of the Tuscia Research University Small Tokamak (TRUST) through a collaboration between the University of Tuscia (UNITUS) and the Institute of Plasma Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (ASIPP). Conceived as an intermediate step toward the commissioning of TRUST, it provides a flexible platform for validating magnetic systems,...

The design of diagnostics for next‑generation fusion devices must address a number of technological and scientific issues, including the capability to operate in the harsh environment expected inside the vacuum vessel. Recent studies have suggested the use of diamond photodetectors within diagnostic systems positioned in close proximity to the plasma as replacements for other semiconductors,...

In Magnetic Confinement Fusion devices like the tokamaks , the plasma dielectric properties can be used for diagnostic purposes. In particular the plasma birefringence induced by the magnetic field, i.e. the difference between the refraction index parallel and perpendicular to the magnetic field has a strong effect on the polarization of a wave propagating inside the plasma. The Polarimeter...

Hybrid pixel detectors such as Timepix3 provide simultaneous spatial, energetic, and temporal information at the single-pixel level, making them attractive for radiation diagnostics across high-energy physics, fusion, and applied environments. Exploiting this rich, multidimensional data for reliable particle identification (PID), however, remains challenging for conventional approaches based...
