โœฆ Synopsis


We use a Hamiltonian description for magnetic ยฎeld lines in a large aspect ratio Tokamak for describing the eect of resonant helical windings in a perturbative way, taking into account the toroidal correction. We consider the formation of chains of primary (main and satellites) and secondary islands, analysing their interactions to describe the generation of chaotic magnetic ยฎeld lines within a portion of the plasma column. This chaotic structure is responsible for disruptive instabilities that may spoil plasma conยฎnement in the Tokamak. Results are compared with numerical integration of magnetic ยฎeld line equations.

Magnetic field lines behaviour in a reversed shear tokamak can be described by a one and a half degree of freedom Hamiltonian system. In order to get insights into its dynamics we study numerically a global model for a Poincar e e map associated to such a system. Mainly we investigate the scenario o

A deliberate stochastization of the magnetic field in tokamaks with Ergodic Divertors (ED) modifies essentially the transport properties at the plasma edge by permitting a radial transfer of particles and heat along stochastic field lines and affecting anomalous transport perpendicular to them. A mo
