Tilt stabilization by energetic beam ions in a field-reversed configuration

Description

The stabilization of the tilt disruption in a field-reversed configuration by an ion beam is investigated by means of a three-dimensional particle simulation. The growth rate of tilt mode decreases as the beam current increases. It is also found that the drift kink mode grows in the vicinity of the field null line and saturates in the early phase.
