Description

This is a brief report about MHD equilibrium and flute stability studies of the Uragan-2M device under construction. Analytical criteria based on a two-dimensional model are evaluated for the Mercier modes and resistive interchange modes. The results suggest the conclusion that it is important to maintain the largest possible value for the average minor radius of the last closed flux surface in the configuration with rotational transform less than one half. 8 refs, 6 figs
