Observations of nearly zero toroidal current in the central region of tokamaks (the "current hole") raises the question of the existence of toroidal equilibria with very low or reversed current in the core. The solutions of the Grad-Shafranov equilibrium e ...
In current-free stellarators, the parallel current density is normally too weak to drive global external kink modes. However, at finite values of beta, the bootstrap current (BC) can provide sufficient free energy to trigger this class of mode in some stel ...
Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities can limit the performance and degrade the confinement of tokamak plasmas. The Tokamak à Configuration Variable (TCV), unique for its capability to produce a variety of poloidal plasma shapes, has been used to analyse ...
The helical distortion of a compact tokamak plasma with currents in modular Furth-Hartman type coils is investigated with respect to the impact on the magnetic field structure and to the ideal magnetohydrodynamic stability. A sequence of configurations, in ...
A simple configuration that consists of a set of toroidal, helical and vertical field coils is used to calculate free boundary equilibria with non-zero plasma current and approximately helically symmetric plasma boundary shape. The amount of helical bounda ...
The article presents experimental and theoretical investigations on the dynamics of saw-teeth and neoclassical tearing modes in tokamak plasmas. The main findings of these investigations are: (1) The experimental validation, on the basis of FTU and TCV dat ...
An analysis of the effect on the wall stabilization of external kink modes due to toroidally continuous gaps in the resistive wall is performed. The effects both with and without toroidal rotation are studied. For a high-beta equilibrium, the mode structur ...
A reduced scalar magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) description for linear perturbations of arbitrary aspect-ratio, fully three-dimensional plasma configurations is derived for perturbations with short scale-length perpendicular to the magnetic field. The applicati ...
The paper presents the KINX code for computing linear ideal MHD growth rates and eigenvectors of axisymmetric plasmas surrounded by a vacuum layer and a conducting wall. Plasma equilibrium magnetic surfaces are assumed to be nested either in the whole plas ...
A numerical study of the free-boundary axisymmetric (n = 0) ideal magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) motions of the EXTRAP device is presented. The dependence of stability on current profiles in the plasma and currents in the external conductors is investigated. ...
