Book Description
Permanent-magnet dipole perturbations were positioned outside the external conducting wall of a pulsed, shearless toroidal octupole plasma containment device. Floating potential profiles and losses were studied for two perturbation configurations; field lines were either closed within the plasma containment zone or were drawn outside the containment zone. Profiles were not affected by the former configuration but were altered when the field lines were drawn outside the containment zone. The extent of the profile change was enhanced when the azimuthal anti E x anti B drifts were suppressed by the presence of obstacle-like internal ring supports. With the anti E x anti B drifts suppressed, the incidence of repetitive encounters was increased between transit particles following field lines and the perturbation field. The net result was particle trajectory displacement and altered V/sub f/ profiles.

Pages : 38
Book Description
The advantages of a toroidal plasma containment device are illustrated. Low loss rates are predicted. A toroidal magnetic field is crossed with a multi-cusp magnetic field in configurations predicted by electrolytic tank analog experiments. Three such configurations are described. The first, a relatively simple device with slowly varying fields, showed the inability of the toroidal field to penetrate a plasma and strong cusp field. The second toroid, with moderately fast fields and application of rotational transform principles, produced plasma-field separation, as evidenced by a hot, relatively dense plasma contained in a central region of reduced cusp field strength. The third toroid, featuring the fastest rising fields, produced similar though more pronounced results, including a three fold compression of a plasma heated to over 15 eV, with containment times on the order of 20 microsec. (Author).
