A new form of the dispersion relation of electron cyclotron waves in hot plasmas is used for the study of auxiliary heating in the Compact Ignition Tokamak (CIT). It is shown that the extraordinary mode with a frequency of 190 GHz can be used in CIT plasmas with a central electron density of 1 x 10/sup -15/ cm/sup -3/ and a toroidal magnetic field of 105 kG.
