Self-organized helical equilibria as a new paradigm for ohmically heated fusion plasmas

TL;DR: In this paper, the evolution of a reversed-field-pinch plasma towards a self-organized single-helicity state suggests that instability problems, which have previously hindered the development of these devices, could now be overcome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnetic self organization, MHD active control and confinement in RFX-mod

TL;DR: Clean mode control (CMC) as mentioned in this paper was proposed to correct the aliasing of the sideband harmonics generated by the discrete saddle coils in real time, which leads to a smoother (i.e. more axisymmetric) boundary.
Journal ArticleDOI

Overview of RFX-mod results

TL;DR: In this article, a new self-organized helical equilibrium has been experimentally achieved (the Single Helical Axis-SHAx state), which is the preferred state at high current.
Journal ArticleDOI

Helical equilibria and magnetic structures in the reversed field pinch and analogies to the tokamak and stellarator

TL;DR: In this article, the experimental characterization of both the internal and edge transport barriers in relation to the magnetic topology is discussed, discussing possible analogies and differences with other confinement schemes.
