First dedicated observations of runaway electrons in the COMPASS tokamak

First dedicated observations of runaway electrons in the COMPASS tokamak

Runaway electrons present an important part of the present efforts in nuclear fusion research with respect to the potential damage of the in-vessel components. The COMPASS tokamak a suitable tool for the studies of runaway electrons, due to its relatively low vacuum safety constraints, high experime...
