Growth rates of the axisymmetric mode in vertically elongated plasmas in the Tokamak a Configuration Variable (TCV) are measured and compared with numerically calculated growth rates for the reconstructed equilibria. This comparison is made over a range of ...
Cross-field transport of barium test ions is studied in a Q-machine plasma. Test particles are produced and tracked in their motion by an optical tagging method. The comparison between the measured tag signal and a simple theoretical simulation yields a qu ...
A semi-implicit spectral/finite difference technique is used to evolve a reduced set of the visco-resistive MHD equations to investigate nonlinear processes involving reconnection on a planar current sheet. Two particular cases, of interest in astrophysica ...
There is not yet a straightforward method for determining the D-T ratio in the centre of a tokamak plasma. One of the simpler measurements put forward in the past is the interpretation of the MHD spectrum in the frequency range of the global Alfven eigenmo ...
At sufficiently high poloidal beta beta(theta) and low collisionality, m/n = 3/2 tearing modes are excited in the DIII-D tokamak by a q = 1 sawtooth crash perturbation. The resulting islands of full radial width w are long lived and reduce global confineme ...
The TCV tokamak has 16 poloidal field coils for plasma shaping, distributed around the vacuum vessel. Experiments are described that determine the relative merits of different coil positions for controlling the unstable vertical movement of elongated plasm ...
