In this paper, we report the results of ion cyclotron resonance frequency (ICRF) heating in the central cell of a fully axisymmetric tandem mirror. With a total power of 100 kW radiated by double half-turn and half-turn antennas, the plasma diamagnetism increases by 15-fold, with a corresponding peak β ⊥ ∼2%, density ∼ 1.5 × 10 18 m − 3 , and total temperature ∼60 eV. The effects of the magnetic configuration on resonance heating and wave emission are studied by varying the magnetic fields at the midplane and at the location of the antennas, respectively; the results confirm that the magnetic beach configuration is key to successful ICRF heating. The axial phase speed measurements suggest that the excited wave is a slow wave in the plasma core and a fast wave at the edge. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
