Inherent magnetic field error measurements in ELMO Bumpy Torus
Review of Scientific Instruments, 1985 The inherent magnetic field error and its radial distribution in the closed field line device of ELMO Bumpy Torus (EBT) have been measured with an electron beam probe. It is found that the field error is almost radially uniform and is about ΔB≤4 G at an average field of B≂7.2 kG. This yields ΔB/B≂5×10−4, which is large enough to open the confined drift

Wave heating models for ion-cyclotron heating in EBT-S [PDF]
, 1980 Wave heating of ELMO BUMPY TORUS-SCALE (EBT-S) in the ion-cyclotron range of frequencies will be strongly influenced by the geometry of the plasma. In particular, the short finite length of the mirror sections means that the electron bounce frequency is ...

Research support for plasma diagnostics on Elmo Bumpy Torus: investigation of diamagnetic diagnostics for the electron rings [PDF]
, 1981 Diamagnetic diagnostics for the EBT electron rings are fundamental to the experiment. The diamagnetic flux pickup loops on each cavity output signals proportional to ring perpendicular energy. A data analysis technique is described, which in its simplest

Beta enhancement by relativistic electron rings in bumpy tori [PDF]
, 1983 The maximum achievable beta (ratio of plasma pressure to magnetic pressure) value in a bumpy torus such as Elmo (EBT) is determined primarily by the stability of the system to the interchange modes.

Ion confinement and transport in a toroidal plasma with externally imposed radial electric fields [PDF]
Strong electric fields were imposed along the minor radius of the toroidal plasma by biasing it with electrodes maintained at kilovolt potentials. Coherent, low-frequency disturbances characteristic of various magnetohydrodynamic instabilities were ...
