Nuclear fusion is one of the most attractive alternatives to carbon-dependent energy
sources. Harnessing energy from nuclear fusion in a large reactor scale, however, still …

A small relaxation of the axisymmetric magnetic field of a tokamak into a non-axisymmetric
three-dimensional (3D) configuration can be effective to control magnetohydrodynamic …

A tokamak relies on the axisymmetric magnetic fields to confine fusion plasmas and aims to
deliver sustainable and clean energy. However, misalignments arise inevitably in the …

A robust theoretical framework for describing the explosive growth of the magneto-hydro-
dynamic (MHD) and turbulence-based instabilities in toroidal plasmas can only be achieved …

Abstract Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research (KSTAR) program is
strongly focused on solving the scientific and technological issues in steady-state high …

A set of in-vessel resonant magnetic perturbation (RMP) coil has been recently installed in
EAST. It can generate a range of spectrum, and there is a relatively large window for edge …

An extensive study of intrinsic and controlled non-axisymmetric field (δB) impacts in KSTAR
has enhanced the understanding about non-axisymmetric field physics and its implications …

At the beginning of a machine operation, an assessment of the intrinsic error fields, spurious
magnetic field perturbations which can affect plasma dynamics, is often carried out by …

One of key objectives of tokamak experiments is the exploration of enhanced confinement
regimes, and the access of the internal transport barrier (ITB) formation is dealt with an …

A technique to identify intrinsic error fields (EFs) in tokamaks with minimized risk of
disruption is demonstrated on the DIII-D tokamak. The method extends the conventional …
