Experimental observation of plasma neoclassical currents
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6732147
Experimental observations of the bootstrap and Pfirsch-Schlueter currents, predicted by neoclassical transport theory, are presented. Detailed measurements of the parallel plasma currents in a toroidal octupole agree, within the separatrix, with theoretical predictions. Observations of the spatial structure, collisionality and toroidal field dependence of the complete current and the ion portion of the current are discussed.
