Sawtooth density waves in the TUMAN-3 tokamak

Journal Article · · Sov. J. Plasma Phys. (Engl. Transl.); (United States)
OSTI ID:5975402

The anomalously large sawtooth oscillations in the electron density have been studied in the TUMAN-3 during ohmic heating of the plasma with a safety factor q/sub a/<3. The oscillation amplitude is much higher than the corresponding values found for other devices.
