Abstract Performance of a single-section, S-band, Plane-WaveTransformer (PWT) photoelectron linac is characterized by a high (multi-ampere) average current required for advanced applications such as Compton x-ray sources and linear collider. Single bunch dynamics and multi-bunch beam loading effects are considered. Threshold current fo...

The main objective of this paper is to show a methodology to implement a Maximum Torque per Ampere Strategy (MTPA) in an Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (IPMSM). IPMSM ́s have been broadly used on industry in the last years for having excellent dynamic performance and high power density. In this article, vector control and MTPA theory and criteria are firstly detailed. Then, the ma...

The role of causal attribution in affect transfer of primes was addressed by examining the consequences of explicit evaluation of primes within the framework of the affect misattribution procedure (AMP; Payne, Cheng, Govorun, & Stewart, 2005). We reasoned that affect transfer occurs when primed affect remains diffuse and not bound to a specific object, hence capable of freely colouring subseque...

Measuring heat flow through nanoscale devices poses formidable practical difficulties as there is no "ampere meter" for heat. We propose to overcome this problem in a chain of trapped ions, where laser cooling the chain edges to different temperatures induces a heat current of local vibrations (vibrons). We show how to efficiently control and measure this current, including fluctuations, by cou...

One of the most efficient methods for the study of boundary and periodic problems for nonlinear differential equations and inclusions, consists in the operator treatment of these problems in suitable functional spaces. However, for a number of problems of this sort, the maps constructed in functional spaces do not possess “nice” properties on the whole domain, but only on some open neighborhood...

A new diagnostic is developed to reconstruct the plasma boundary using visible wavelength images. Exploiting the plasma's edge localized and toroidally symmetric emission profile, a new coordinate transform is presented to reconstruct the plasma boundary from a poloidal view image. The plasma boundary reconstruction is implemented in MATLAB and applied to camera images of Mega-Ampere Spherical ...
