We present the solution of the kinetic equation describing the quasi-linear evolution of the electron momentum distribution function under the influence of the electron cyclotron wave absorption, Coulomb collisions and the dc electric field in a tokamak plasma. The solution of the quasi-linear equat
The reduced magneto-hydro-dynamical (MHD) equations show that the pressure gradient together with the magnetic-field curvature as a force drives the plasma short-wavelength MHD instability in a toroidal system. This paper discusses the role of magnetic curvature of tokamak plasmas in some detail. It
