Beat-wave current drive in a magnetized plasma

Creators

Description

It is shown that large currents can be efficiently driven in magnetically confined plasmas by the ponderomotive force created by the beating of two electromagnetic waves. The beating waves can be cyclotron waves propagating parallel to the magnetic field or light waves propagating obliquely to the magnetic field
