Motivated by a renewed interest in impurity transport in nuclear fusion research, this reference text covers the diagnostics, experimental approach, and results of recent impurity transport studies in tokamak and helical plasmas. It also covers the impurity transport parallel to the magnetic field in the scrape-off layer (SOL) and the impact of magnetic topology on impurity transport. Topics covered include an introduction to impurity transport; the diagnostics system with passive and active spectroscopy; impurity transport across magnetic flux surfaces; the effect of magnetic topology; and the control of impurity transport using electron cyclotron resonance heating and ion cyclotron resonance heating. With few books available on impurity transport in plasmas, this book would appeal to academic researchers and graduate students on the field of plasma physics and nuclear fusion research.Part of IOP Series in Plasma Physics.

Cet ouvrage s'inscrit dans un programme de recherche ample qui illustre la volonté de maintenir une activité scientifique collégiale dans l'unité de recherche l'IMSIC UTLN- AMU (Institut Méditerranéen des Sciences de l'Information et de la Communication, Université de Toulon et Aix-Marseille Université) lors du premier confinement, mais aussi de remplir un rôle d'utilité sociale. Les auteurs se sont mobilisés en mars 2020 afin de monter un programme lié à la situation du confinement et des perspectives qui se dessinaient à partir de cette expérience exceptionnelle. Celui-ci a porté sur la possible transformation des expériences informationnelles, communicationnelles et culturelles des populations avec cette orientation : les nouvelles formes d'écosystèmes socio-communicationnels et la réinvention des formes de vie face au COVID-19. L'ouvrage s'est intéressé à plusieurs contextes comme la culture, l'éducation, les controverses autour de la santé avec un regard porté à d'autres pays.

"Based on ethnographic observations and interviews with inmates, correctional officers, and civilian staff conducted in solitary confinement units, Way Down in the Hole explores the myriad ways in which daily, intimate interactions between those locked up twenty-four hours a day and the correctional officers charged with their care, custody, and control produce and reproduce hegemonic racial ideologies. Smith and Hattery explore the outcome of building prisons in rural, economically depressed communities, staffing them with white people who live in and around these communities, filling them with Black and brown bodies from urban areas and then designing the structure of solitary confinement units such that the most private, intimate daily bodily functions take place in very public ways. Under these conditions, it shouldn't be surprising, but is rarely considered, that such daily interactions produce and reproduce white racial resentment among many correctional officers and fuel the racialized tensions that inmates often describe as the worst forms of dehumanization. Way Down in the Hole concludes with recommendations for reducing the use of solitary confinement, reforming its use in a limited context, and most importantly, creating an environment in which inmates and staff co-exist in ways that recognize their individual humanity and reduce rather than reproduce racial antagonisms and racial resentment"--

How prisons around the world shape the social lives of their inhabitantsPrison Life offers a fresh appreciation of how people in prison organize their lives, drawing on case studies from Africa, Europe and the US. The book describes how order is maintained, how power is exercised, how days are spent, and how meaning is found in a variety of environments that all have the same function – incarceration – but discharge it very differently. It is based on an unusually diverse range of sources including photographs, drawings, court cases, official reports, memoirs, and site visits.Ian O’Donnell contrasts the soul-destroying isolation of the federal supermax in Florence, Colorado with the crowded conviviality of an Ethiopian prison where men and women cook their own meals, seek opportunities to generate an income, elect a leadership team, and live according to a code of conduct that they devised and enforce. He explores life on wings controlled by the Irish Republican Army in Northern Ireland’s H Blocks, where men who saw the actions that led to their incarceration as politically-motivated moved as one, in perpetual defiance of the authorities. He shows how prisoners in Texas took to the courts to overthrow a regime that allowed their routine subjugation by violent men known as building tenders, who had been selected by staff to supervise and discipline their peers.In each case study O’Donnell presents the life story of a man who was molded by, and in return molded, the institution that held him. This ensures that his reflections on law and policy as well as on theory and practice never lose sight of the human angle. Imprisonment is about pain after all, and pain is personal.
