Lower hybrid wave heating experiments at General Atomic
Description
Plasma heating experiments utilizing Landau damping of the lower hybrid wave at frequencies above ω/sub LH/ are currently in progress in Doublet IIA and the dc Octopole tokamak. Both the Octopole and Doublet IIA have demonstrated excellent coupling using slow wave antennas. The dc Octopole operating in ths normal mode has demonstrated penetration and highly efficient electron heating. Increased electrical conductivity has been observed in the Doublet IIA experiments. In the current experiments the auxiliary power can significantly exceed the ohmic power input, the ratio being as high as 5
