      Vargas-Blanco, Ivan; Otárola-Zúñiga, Carlos; Zamora-Picado, Esteban; Mora-Meléndez, Jaime; Mora, A; Asenjo, J.; Villalobos, E (26th IEEE Symposium on Fusion Engineering, SOFE 2015, 2015)
      The SCR-1 is a small modular stellarator designed, constructed and is being implemented at Instituto Tecnológico de Costa Rica. The project is its final phase of commissioning and it is expected to be operational in June ...
    • Transport, stability and plasma control studies in the TJ-II stellarator 

      Sánchez, J.; Alegre, D.; Alonso, A.; Alonso, J.; Alvarez, P.; Arévalo, J.; Ascasíbar, E.; Baciero, A.; Baiao, D.; Barcala, J. (Institute of Physics Publishing, 2015-07)
      The main TJ-II results since 2012 are presented in this overview. Impurity confinement is studied showing an isotopic dependence of impurity confinement time, asymmetries in parallel impurity flows in TJ-II ion-root plasmas ...
