Observation of a high-confinement regime in a tokamak plasma with ion cyclotron resonance heating

  • 1. Max-Planck-Institut fuer Plasmaphysik EURATOM Association, D-8046 Garching, Federal Republic of Germany

Description

The H mode in ion cyclotron-resonance-heated plasmas has been investigated with and without additional neutral beam injection. Ion cyclotron-resonance heating can cause the transition into a high-confinement regime (H mode) in combination with beam heating. The H mode, however, has also been realized: for the first time: with ion cyclotron-resonance heating alone in the D (H)-hydrogen minority scheme at an absorbed rf power of 1.1 MW
