TL;DR: A review of recent advances in the area of MHD stability and disruptions, since the publication of the 1999 ITER Physics Basis document (1999 Nucl. Fusion 39 2137-2664), is reviewed in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Equilibrium analysis of current profiles in tokamaks
TL;DR: In this paper, an efficient method is given for self-consistent reconstruction of the tokamak current profiles and their associated magnetic topology using the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equilibrium constraint from external magnetic measurements, kinetic profile measurements, internal poloidal magnetic field measurements, and topological information from soft X-ray (SXR) measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced confinement and stability in DIII-D discharges with reversed magnetic shear.

TL;DR: Values of normalized beta, up to 4 ({percent}-{ital m}-T/MA), energy confinement are a factor of 3 better than {ital L} mode, and at least 50% of the noninductive plasma current in this regime demonstrates compatibility with requirements for a steady-state high-beta tokamak power plant.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, a quantitative comparison between both the conventional resistive and neoclassical theories, and the experimental results of several machines, which have all observed these low-min nonideal modes.
Journal ArticleDOI
