Maryland Controlled Fusion Research Program. Progress report, November 1, 1993--October 31, 1994
The theoretical research activity at the University of Maryland supported by the Department of Energy focusses on two major tasks. They are: A. Transport, generation of shear flow and L-H transitions in Tokamaks; and B. MHD stability of Tokamaks. Titles of specific research projects under these fields carried out in this period include: Poloidal rotation of tokamak plasmas at super-poloidal-sonic speeds; Rotation of plasmas in neoclassical regimes; New unstable branch of drift resistive ballooning modes in tokamaks; 3D fluid simulations of the drift resistive ballooning modes - twisted coordinate system; Disintegration of ion banana orbits in tokamak edge plamsas; Fast reconnection in high temperature plasmas; Dynamics of sawtooth collapse in tokamak plasmas; Effect of trapped particles on MHD modes; MHD stability of high beta toroidal equilibria.
