Confinement transitions in TJ-II under Li-coated wall conditions

J. Sánchez, +114 more
- 10 Sep 2009 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the latest results on confinement studies in the TJ-II stellarator and show that the inherently strong plasma-wall interaction of TJII has been successfully reduced after lithium coating by vacuum evaporation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alfvén eigenmodes measured in the TJ-II stellarator

TL;DR: In this article, high frequency modes (150-300 kHz) are found in several magnetic configurations of TJ-II plasmas heated by neutral beam injection (NBI) and the clear dependence of mode frequency on plasma density and mass species suggests them to be Alfveigenmodes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluctuations and stability of plasmas in the H-1NF heliac

TL;DR: The H-1NF heliac as discussed by the authors is a medium-sized heliac stellarator experiment with major radius R = 1 m, and average plasma minor radius a = 0.15-0.2 m. Its flexible-heliac coil set permits precise variation in the value and shape of the rotational transform (ι) profile, with regions of both positive and negative shear.
