Description
The problem of the vertical instability of elongated plasmas and/or iron core tokamak plasmas remains a crucial issue for the feedback synthesis of present machines and the design of future ones. The aim of the paper is to characterise the open-loop behaviour of the complete plasma-vessel-coils coupled system, and to analyse the consequences on the feedback design. Analytical expressions are derived from a lumped parameters description. Applications to TORE SUPRA and ITER are presented. (author) 8 refs., 6 figs
