Toroidal plasma resonances and electron transit time damping for heating large thermonuclear tori

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We advocate a new method consisting of combining the large amplification of the r.f. field strength inside the plasma due to a magnetosonic resonance or to a torsional wave resonance of the toroidal cavity with its collision-less damping resulting from electron transit time damping.
