Abstract
A model for "breathing" plasmas observed in the large helical device [Y. Ta keiri , Plasma Phys. Controlled Fusion 42, 147 (2000)] is proposed. It take s into account the synergism of radiation losses from both low-Z (carbon, o xygen) and high-Z (iron) impurities in the plasma power balance. (C) 2000 A merican Institute of Physics.
