Journal Article
Matthews, S., Reid, H., Baker, D., Bloomfield, D., Browning, P., Calcines, A., …Vilmer, N. (2022). The high-energy Sun - probing the origins of particle acceleration on our nearest star. Experimental Astronomy, 54, 335-360. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10686-021-09798-6

As a frequent and energetic particle accelerator, our Sun provides us with an excellent astrophysical laboratory for understanding the fundamental process of particle acceleration. The exploitation of radiative diagnostics from electrons has shown th... Read More about The high-energy Sun - probing the origins of particle acceleration on our nearest star.

Experimental Astronomy, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10686-021-09774-0

The magnetic activity of the Sun directly impacts the Earth and human life. Likewise, other stars will have an impact on the habitability of planets orbiting these host stars. Although the magnetic field at the surface of the Sun is reasonably well c... Read More about Magnetic imaging of the outer solar atmosphere (MImOSA).

Development of an 11-channel multi wavelength imaging diagnostic for divertor plasmas in MAST Upgrade (2021)
Journal Article
Feng, X., Calcines, A., Sharples, R., Lipschultz, B., Perek, A., Vijvers, W., …Mumgaard, R. (2021). Development of an 11-channel multi wavelength imaging diagnostic for divertor plasmas in MAST Upgrade. Review of Scientific Instruments, 92(6), Article 063510. https://doi.org/10.1063/5.0043533

Divertor detachment and alternative divertor magnetic geometries are predicted to be promising approaches to handle the power exhaust of future fusion devices. In order to understand the detachment process caused by volumetric losses in alternative d...
