Bootstrap current in TFTR (Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor)
Neutral-beam-heated plasmas in TFTR show evidence of substantial non-ohmically-driven toroidal current, even for balanced beam momentum input. The observations are inconsistent with calculations including only ohmic and beam-driven currents, and presently can only be matched by models including the neoclassical bootstrap current. 28 refs., 9 figs., 1 tab.
