Effect of Loss-Cone-Like Scattering Transport on Particle Confinement and Rotation in the Field-Reversed Theta Pinch
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe Field-Reversed Theta Pinch (FRTP) represents a promising confinement approach to fusion power. However some experiments have encountered rapid particle losses and plasma disruption after a period of increasing rotation frequency. The objective of the present research was to develop theoretical models to explain the phenomena and simultaneously explore ways to reduce losses and spin-up.
