Abstract
A rotational tomography technique for noncircular tokamak plasmas has been developed. Using a linear transformation from an elliptic coordinate system to the circular one, and compensating for the Shafranov shift, the elliptic plasma shape is transformed to the concentric circular shape. Fitting the data of a quarter rotation to the Fourier–Bessel expansions, the tomography is performed. This technique is applied to the snake oscillation, to the slow sawtooth crash, and to the post-cursor oscillations of noncircular plasmas on JET.
