Diffusion Driven Plasma Currents and Bootstrap Tokamak

In toroidal systems of plasma confinement the intrinsic diffusion driven toroidal current modifies estimates of the maximum ratio of plasma pressure to magnetic field pressure. This intrinsic current may also make possible a type of Tokamak machine which operates in a steady state, unlike present pu...

Zusammenfassung:In toroidal systems of plasma confinement the intrinsic diffusion driven toroidal current modifies estimates of the maximum ratio of plasma pressure to magnetic field pressure. This intrinsic current may also make possible a type of Tokamak machine which operates in a steady state, unlike present pulsed designs.
