Transport in the Sawtooth Collapse

Creators

  • 1. JET Joint Undertaking, Abingdon, Oxfordshire (United Kingdom)

Description

The rapid temperature collapse in tokamak sawtooth oscillations having incomplete magnetic reconnection is generally thought to occur through ergodization of the magnetic field. An experiment in JET using injected nickel indicates that this explanation is improbable. copyright 1997 The American Physical Society
