Experimental observations of driven and intrinsic rotation in tokamak plasmas are reviewed.
For momentum sources, there is direct drive from neutral beam injection, lower hybrid and …

Abstract Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research (KSTAR) program is
strongly focused on solving the scientific and technological issues in steady-state high …

Collisionless physics primarily determines the transport of fusion-born alpha particles in 3D
equilibria. Several transport mechanisms have been implicated in stellarator configurations …

Abstract The integrated Resonant Magnetic Perturbation (RMP)-based Edge-Localized
Mode (ELM)-crash-control process aims to enhance the plasma performance during the …

A quantitative interpretation of the experimentally measured high-pressure plasma response
to externally applied three-dimensional (3D) magnetic field perturbations, across the no-wall …

Externally applied, non-axisymmetric magnetic fields form the basis of several relatively
simple and direct methods to control magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities in a …

Predictive 3D optimization reveals a novel approach to modify a nonaxisymmetric magnetic
perturbation to be entirely harmless for tokamaks, by essentially restoring quasisymmetry in …

Optimal error field correction (EFC) is thought to be achieved when coupling to the least-
stable “dominant” mode of the plasma is nulled at each toroidal mode number (n). The limit …

This paper presents a calculation of neoclassical toroidal viscous torque independent of
large-aspect-ratio expansions across kinetic regimes. The Perturbed Equilibrium …

Validating the calculations of kinetic resistive wall mode (RWM) stability is important for
confidently predicting RWM stable operating regions in ITER and other high performance …
