چکیده
The H-1NF is uniquely equipped to study magnetic configurations because of its combination of precisely controllable power supplies, the flexible coil set and the permanently installed wire-tomography mapping system. This precision and flexibility in magnetic configuration make H-1 ideal for magnetic island studies, exploring the range of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities appearing in H-1, and mapping out their dispersion relations.

New Classes of Quasi-Axisymmetric Stellarator Configurations
We have identified and developed new classes of quasi-axially symmetric configurations which have attractive properties from the standpoint of both near-term physics experiments and long-term power producing reactors. These new configurations were developed as a result of surveying the aspect ratio-rotational transform space to identify regions endowed with particularly interesting features. Th...
متن کاملWhy Compact Tori For Fusion?
A compact torus (CT) has a toroidal magnetic and plasma geometry, but is contained within a simplyconnected vacuum vessel such as a cylinder. Spheromaks and field-reversed configurations fall into this category. Compact tori are translatable and have a high engineering beta. The primary benefit of CTs for fusion is the absence of toroidal field and Ohmic Heating coils and the many problems brou...
متن کاملUWFDM-1276 YAC: A Code Using the Detailed Term Accounting Model for All-Z Elements
We are developing an atomic code, YAC, for elements from low to high Z that explicitly include the detailed term structure. Detailed electron configurations are produced from a list of super-configurations. These detailed configurations are used as effective energy levels for population kinetics. Further, a list of all possible atomic processes such as photoexcitation (ionization), electron col...
متن کاملOptimization of experimental snowflake configurations on TCV
The design of a snowflake (SF) equilibrium requires a strong effort on the poloidal field (PF) currents in terms of MAturns and mechanical loads. This has limited the maximum plasma current in SF configurations on Tokamak à Configuration Variable (TCV) to values well below the intrinsic MHD limits. In this paper the definition of optimized snowflake (SF) configurations in TCV and their experime...
متن کاملRayleigh-Taylor Instability of a Compressible Plasma with Finite Larmor Radius Effects
The Rayleigh-Taylor instability of a compressible plasma in the presence of a horizontal magnetic field is investigated, taking into account the effects of finite Larmor radius. Only transverse perturbations are considered. The problem is shown to be characterized by a variational principle. Using it, the dispersion relation is obtained for a plasma layer of finite thickness and having an expon...
متن کاملLumps of plasma in arbitrary dimensions
We use the AdS/CFT correspondence in a regime in which the field theory reduces to fluid dynamics to construct an infinite class of new black objects in Scherk-Schwarz compactified AdSd+2 space. Our configurations are dual to black objects that generalize black rings and have horizon topology S × T for n ≤ d−1 2 . Locally our fluid configurations are plasma sheets that curve around into tori wh...
