Technical Report Phillips, C

The Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor (TFTR) achieved first plasma at 3:05 a.m. on December 24, 1982. During the course of the year, the plasma current was raised to a maximum of 1 MA, and extensive confinement studies were carried out with ohmic-heated plasmas. The most important finding was that tokamak energy confinement time increases as the cube of the plasma size. The Princeton Large Torus (PLT) carried out a number of high-powered plasma-heating experiments in the ion cyclotron frequency range, and also demonstrated for the first time that a 100-kA tokamak discharge can be built up by means of rf-wavesmore »« less

FY93 Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory. Annual report, October 1, 1992--September 30, 1993

Technical Report

This is the annual report from the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory for the period October 1, 1992 to September 30, 1993. The report describes work done on TFTR during the year, as well as preparatory to beginning of D-T operations. Design work is ongoing on the Tokamak Physics Experiment (TPX) which is to test very long pulse operations of tokamak type devices. PBX has come back on line with additional ion-Bernstein power and lower-hybrid current drive. The theoretical program is also described, as well as other small scale programs, and the growing effort in collaboration on international design projects onmore »« less

Technical Report Phillips, C

The construction of the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor (TFTR) has been proceeding in a highly satisfactory manner, giving confidence that the project schedule will be met. The vacuum vessel and toroidal-field coil systems are now in place, and the entire mechanical assembly process is about to be completed. Experimental operation of TFTR will begin with ohmic-heating studies in early CY83, and will proceed to intensive neutral-beam heating in CY84. Radio-frequency experiments on the Princeton Large Torus (PLT) have used a new 3-MW ion cyclotron heating source to demonstrate second-harmonic heating of hydrogen ions up to temperatures of 3 keV.
