Plasma Equilibrium with Inner Separatrix in Tokamaks
摘要
Several plasma equilibria with inner (current and magnetic) separatrices in a tokamak have been considered. Calculated and available experimental data for such equilibria have been compared. It is shown that a qualitative change in the equilibrium plasma configuration is possible at a small change in the inner plasma inductance in a tokamak. It is noted that an equilibrium solution is possible for some types of flux functions in the Grad–Shafranov equation, only if the plasma density at its boundary is nonzero. It is established that the formation of a natural poloidal divertor is determined not only by the
