Neoclassical calculation of poloidal rotation and poloidal density asymmetries in tokamaks
A previous model for the calculation of poloidal velocities and poloidal density asymmetries in the core of a tokamak plasma is refined and extended by the inclusion of terms which are important for the calculation of these quantities in the plasma edge. Agreement of predictions of the model with experiment is demonstrated. The effects of edge pressure gradient, collisionality, neutral density ...
متن کاملEnergetic particle mode stability in tokamaks with hollow q-profiles
A thorough analysis of energetic particle modes ~EPM! stability and mode structures is presented for tokamaks with hollow q profiles. Focusing on the region near the minimum-q surface, EPM gap modes and resonant EPMs are shown to exist as solutions of the same dispersion relation. By controlling the fast ion distribution function, or, equivalently, their fundamental dynamical properties, a smoo...
متن کاملTokamaks with Reversed Current Density: Stability of Equilibria with Axisymmetric Islands
Tokamak regimes with nearly zero or negative toroidal current in the central region (current hole) feature good plasma confinement properties and may be naturally attained in the advanced tokamak (AT) regime. On the other hand, quasi-steady-state AC plasma current operation in tokamaks relies upon the existence of current reversal equilibria with zero net toroidal current. In both cases a syste...
متن کاملBoundary-integral method for poloidal axisymmetric AC magnetic fields
This paper presents a boundary-integral equation (BIE) method for the calculation of poloidal axisymmetric magnetic fields applicable in a wide range of ac frequencies. The method is based on the vector potential formulation and it uses the Green’s functions of Laplace and Helmholtz equations for the exterior and interior of conductors, respectively. The work is particularly focused on a calcul...
متن کاملStability number and even [2, b]-factors in graphs
Let b, b ≥ 2, be an even integer. A spanning subgraph of a graph G whose vertices have even degrees belonging to the interval [2, b], is called an even [2, b]-factor of G. In this paper, we prove a sufficient condition for the existence of an even [2, b]-factor which involves the stability number, the minimum degree of G and the integer b.
