Finite /beta/ stellarators
Journal Article
·
· IEEE Trans. Plasma Sci.; (United States)
A fully three-dimensional computer code based on an ideal magnetohydrodynamic model has been used to find stellarator configurations with finite critical values of the plasma parameter /beta/. It is established that the WISTOR-U torsatron designed at the University of Wisconsin and the Heliotron E experiment constructed at Kyoto University have average /beta/ limits near 5 percent. 10 refs.
