Criteria for Runaway Electron Generation in Tokamak Disruptions
Experimental observations show that there is a magnetic field threshold for runaway electron generation in tokamak disruptions. A possible explanation for these observations is that the runaway beam excites whistler waves that scatter the electrons in velocity space and prevents the beam from growing. The growth rates of the most unstable whistler waves are inversely proportional to the magneti...
متن کاملEnergetics of runaway electrons during tokamak disruptions
In a tokamak disruption, a substantial fraction of the plasma current can be converted into runaway electrons. Although these are usually highly relativistic, their total energy is initially much smaller than that of the pre-disruption plasma. However, following a suggestion by Putvinski et al. [Plasma Phys. Control. Fusion 39, B157 (1997)], it is shown that as the post-disruption plasma drifts...

متن کاملRunaway electron energy measurement using hard x-ray spectroscopy in "Damavand" tokamak.
Set of experiments has been developed to study existing runaway electrons in "Damavand" tokamak plasma upon characteristics of hard x-ray emissions produced by collision of the runaway electrons with the plasma particles and limiters. As a first step, spatial distribution of hard x-ray emissions on the equatorial plane of the torus was considered. Obtained spectra of hard x-ray emissions for di...
متن کاملPlasma Recombination in Runaway Discharges in Tokamak TCABR
A new regime of runaway discharges has been observed in the TCABR tokamak. One of the most distinctive features of this regime is the e ect of plasma detachment from the limiter. This experimental fact can only be explained by the volume recombination, which requires a low-temperature plasma. The analysis of the energy and particle balance in the system plasma-relativistic runaway beam in TCABR...
