Perturbative analysis of low-frequency instabilities in high-field ST40 experiments
Linear and nonlinear perturbative analyses of low-frequency instabilities are presented for ST40 spherical torus high field plasmas, with simultaneous neutral beam heating due to two tangential sources at 25 keV and 55 keV.

Time-dependent modelling of 104/137 GHz X2-mode ECRH on ST40 to aid future scenario development [PDF]
With a multi-Tesla magnetic field and the capability to achieve fusion-relevant ion temperatures, the ST40 experiment is uniquely positioned as a high-performance spherical tokamak on which to test reactor-relevant technologies.

Evaluation of the functional acceptability of the ITER vacuum vessel
The International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) vacuum vessel (VV) is one of the critical components of the ITER tokamak fusion reactor. The first sector of the ITER VV was delivered to ITER Organization in 2020, and it is ready to assemble ...

Effects of CT injector acceleration electrode configuration on tokamak penetration [PDF]
Through compact toroid (CT) injection experiments on the TEXT-U tokamak (with BT simeq 10 kG and IP simeq 100 kA), it has been shown that the acceleration electrode configuration, particularly in the vicinity of the toroidal field (TF) coils of the ...

On non existence of tokamak equilibria with purely poloidal flow [PDF]
It is proved that irrespective of compressibility tokamak steady states with purely poloidal mass flow can not exist in the framework of either magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) or Hall MHD models.

Progress in the pre-conceptual design of the auxiliary heating and current drive system for the Tokamak Energy Fusion Pilot Plant [PDF]
Auxiliary heating and current drive is a crucial aspect of reactor-relevant tokamaks. Tokamak Energy is currently in the design phase of their Fusion Pilot Plant (FPP). Initial investigations for the flat-top phase of plasma scenarios rely exclusively on

Motion and equilibrium of a spheromak in a toroidal flux conserver [PDF]
A number of experiments have been performed on spheromaks injected into the empty vacuum vessel of the Caltech ENCORE tokamak (i.e., without tokamak plasma) [Phys. Rev. Lett. 64, 2144 (1990); Phys. Fluids B 2, 1306 (1990)].

The ion orbit loss (IOL) can drive the bulk ions co-current rotation at the edge of the tokamak plasmas. The effect of triangularity on the IOL is investigated by using an analytical tokamak equilibrium model for the shaped plasmas.
