Abstract
A large - bootstrap - current tokamak plasma driven by the ohmic seed current has been studied for inductively-operated ultra-long-pulse tok amak fusion reactors. The safety factor profile with the negative magn etic shear has been demonstrated only by the combination of the ohmic and bootstrap currents, by adjusting the density profile, and the boot strap current fraction more than 80 % is realized with the help of the increased q(0) value.
