ELMO Bumpy Torus program [PDF]
A sequence of programs and related research objectives are described. The achievement of each of these objectives then permits a rational choice of design parameters for successive devices. The first step proposed here, denoted EBT-S, requires increasing the EBT magnetic field to permit microwave heating at 18 and 28 GHz, as compared to the present 10 ...

Catastrophes In The Elmo Bumpy Torus [PDF]
Experimentally it is observed that the plasma in Elmo Bumpy Torus (EBT) shows discontinuous changes in the electron line density, electron and ion temperatures and fluctuation levels as the ambient gas pressure or electron cyclotron heating is varied ...

ELMO Bumpy Torus Reactor (EBTR) reference design [PDF]
The goal of the ELMO Bumpy Torus Reactor (EBTR) study is the evaluation of the EBT confinement concept as the basis for development of a commercial fusion power reactor. A multidisciplinary, self-consistent treatment of EBT reactor scaling and design has been completed and a reference design (EBTR-48) has been developed.

Plasma fluctuation measurements in ELMO bumpy torus
Spatially resolved density fluctuation measurements in the dc frequency range up to 500 kHz have been conducted on the ELMO Bumpy Torus (EBT-I) plasma using photodetectors and Langmuir probes. Plasma currents produced by microwave-heated hot electron annuli were found to reduce fluctuations of toroidal plasma to low levels.

ELMO Bumpy Torus data base [PDF]
This document describes a set of computer programs developed to facilitate storage and retrieval of data generated by the ELMO Bumpy Torus (EBT) experiment. The data is stored in a collection of files which contain either raw or analyzed data from diagnostics connected to the experiment.

Lower hybrid heating in ELMO Bumpy Torus
Absorption of lower hybrid wave energy by the electron and ion plasma components in the ELMO Bumpy Torus (EBT) is examined. The wave and plasma parameters used are those appropriate for the EBT-Scale (EBT-S) and EBT Proof-of-Principle (EBT-P) devices. The computations are carried out using a ray-tracing code that was developed at the Oak Ridge National

Plasma simulation and modeling for ELMO bumpy torus reactor [PDF]
A simple model (time-dependent deuterium-tritium point model) has been formulated to assess the energy balance in an ELMO Bumpy Torus Reactor (EBTR) plasma. The effects of the different scaling assumptions on EBTR performance and operating point have been analyzed. Although in the present EBT device (EBT-I) plasma transport seems to be governed largely

Transient waveform acquisition system for the ELMO Bumpy Torus
The transient waveform system described in this report is designed to acquire analog waveforms from the ELMO Bumpy Torus (EBT) diagnostic experiments. Pressure, density, synchrotron radiation, etc., are acquired and digitized with a Kinetic Systems TR812 transient recorder and associated modules located in a CAMAC crate.
