Y. Ogawa et al., TRANSPORT SIMULATION OF A LARGE-BOOTSTRAP-CURRENT TOKAMAK PLASMA DRIVEN BY THE OHMIC SEED CURRENT, Fusion technology, 27, 1995, pp. 432-435
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.
