Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of electrode biasing on the radial electric field structure bifurcation in tokamak plasmas
TL;DR: In this article, the radial electric field structure is determined by the charge conservation equation and the radial current driven by the electrode plays the role of a control parameter in a transition similarly to the pressure gradient.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical study of neutral gas transport in linear plasma device
Maxim Ignatenko,Masafumi Azumi,Masatoshi Yagi,Shunjiro Shinohara,Sanae I. Itoh,Kimitaka Itoh +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the neutral gas transport in argon plasma is calculated by means of Monte Carlo method, which takes into account the self-elastic collisions along with the elastic neutral ion and the electron impact ionization collisions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coexistence of Collisional Drift and Flute Wave Instabilities in Bounded Linear ECR Plasma
Kunihiro Kamataki,Yoshihiko Nagashima,Shunjiro Shinohara,Yoshinobu Kawai,Masatoshi Yagi,Kimitaka Itoh,Sanae I. Itoh +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the experimental and theoretical investigation on the coexistence of the collisional drift and flute wave instabilities in the bounded linear electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma was conducted.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Assessment of Limit Cycle Oscillation Dynamics Prior to L-H Transition
TL;DR: In this article, experimental observations of limit cycle oscillations (LCO) that precede L-to-H transition are discussed, including the existence of zonal flows, spatio-temporal evolutions of turbulence intensity, and periodic generations/decays of mean radial electric field and density.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transport analysis of the effect of zonal flows on electron internal transport barriers in toroidal helical plasmas
Shinichiro Toda,Kimitaka Itoh,Akihide Fujisawa,S.-I. Itoh,Masatoshi Yagi,Atsushi Fukuyama,Patrick Diamond,Katsumi Ida +7 more
TL;DR: The role of zonal flows in the formation of transport barrier in helical plasmas is analyzed using the transport code in this article, where a set of one-dimensional transport equations is analyzed, including the effect of Zonal flows.
