The Analysis Of Magnetohydrodynamic Modes In Tokamaks By X-Ray Techniques

N. Sauthoff

Open publisher page 3 citations

Abstract

A brief review of recent studies of fluctuations in x-rav emission from tokamak plasmas of controlled thermonuclear fusion interest is given. The origin of the x-rays, the nature of the oscillations, and measurement and analysis techniques are discussed, with emphasis on the work performed on the ST and PLT tokamaks. Areas for future research, particularly in the region of reconstruction, are stressed.
