Analysis of particle orbits in spherical tokamak-stellarator hybrid system (TOKASTAR) and experiments in Compact-TOKASTER device

Description
A compact spherical tokamak-stellarator hybrid system TOKASTAR was proposed, and particle orbit analysis in this configuration has been carried out. In the original configuration, the average rotational transform is rather small, and several improved configurations were evaluated. The confinement improvement of fast particles was clarified. For the experimental demonstration of this configuration concept, a Compact-TOKASTAR device (C-TOKASTAR) was constructed, and the existence of these magnetic surfaces was suggested using an electron-emission impedance method.
