DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6695609· OSTI ID:6695609
Auxiliary heating experiments are continuing on both PLT and PDX. PLT has increased the available ICRF power delivered to the plasma to 3 MW for the 42 MHz system and to 1.6 MW for the 25 MHz system. Deuteron and electron heating are observed in the minority /sup 3/He (T/sub d/ approx. 2.8 keV, T/sub e/ approx. 2.2 keV) and H (T/sub d/ approx. 2 keV, T/sub e/ approx. 2.5 keV) heating regimes. In addition, ion heating has been observed in the second harmonic regime (T/sub eff/ = 2/3 = 3.3 keV).
