AbstractAbstract
[en] The influence of external resonant helical fields (RHF) in the tokamak TBR plasma discharges was investigated. These fields were created by helical windings wounded on the TBR vessel with the same helicity of rational magnetic surfaces, producing resonant efects on these surfaces. The characteristics of the MHZ activity (amplitude, frequency and poloidal and toroidal wave numbers, m=2,3,4 and n=1, respectively) during the plasma discharges were modified by eletrical winding currents of the order of 2% of the plasma current. These characterisitics were measured for diferent discharges safety factors at the limiter (q) between 3 and 4, with and without the RHF, with the atenuation of the oscillation amplitudes and the increasing of their frequencies. The existente of expontaneous and induced magnetic islands were investigated. The data were compared with results obtained in other tokamaks. (author)

Neste trabalho foi investigada a acao de campos ressonantes helicoidais (CRH) externos, nas descargas de plasma no tokamak TBR. Estes campos foram obtidos por espiras, enroladas helicoidalmente ao redor do vaso do TBR, com helicidades iguais as das superficies racionais do campo magnetico, criando efeitos ressonantes nessas superficies. As caracteristicas da atividade MHD (amplitude, frequencia e numeros de onda poloidal m=2,3,4 e toroidal n=1), durante as descargas de plasma eram alteradas, para intensidades de corrente eletrica, nas espiras helicoidais, da ordem de 2% da corrente de plasma. Essas caracteristicas foram medidas em descargas diferentes, para fatores de seguranca no limitador (q) entre 3 e 4, com e sem o acionamento dos CRH, constantando-se o amortecimento de suas amplitudes e o aumento de suas frequencias. Foi investigada tambem a formacao de ilhas magneticas expontaneas e as criadas pelos CHR externos. Os resultados foram comparados com trabalhos realizados em outros tokamaks. (autor)Original Title
