Abstract

Simulation studies of noninductive current profile control have been carried out for the Tokamak Physics Experiment (TPX).1 The predicted MHD equilibria have been analyzed for ideal ballooning stability and stability to the low‐n, external kink modes. An advanced rf physics technique for off‐axis current profile control has also been investigated for TPX. This scheme utilizes mode conversion and electron absorption in a D‐(3He) plasma mixture.
