The linear stability of high-toroidal-number drift-ballooning modes in tokamaks is investigated with a model that includes resistive and viscous dissipation, and assumes the mode frequency to be comparable to both the sound and diamagnetic frequencies. The coupled effect of ion drift waves and electron drift-acoustic waves is shown to be important,…

Whereas the essential components for power generation and transmission on an ITERsized ICRF plant are readily available, or only require modest extrapolation of present day ICRF systems, the 1C launching structure itself is regarded as needing development, validation and convincing demonstration. During the ITER-EDA, the design requirements of the …

Electron cyclotron emission (ECE) is a standard diagnostic in present day tokamak devices for temperature measurement. When the plasma density is high enough the emission at some frequencies is cut off. Of these cutoff frequencies, the first frequency to cut off depends on the shape of the density profile. If the density profile can be described by…

The large size of future, and possibly present day, tokamaks requires high neutral atom beam energies for current drive and heating. These injectors must also have a high electrical efficiency and this can be achieved using negative ion sources to create the beam. These large tokamaks, such as ITER or NET require a neutral beam power of around 50-1…
