Popis: We report the first results of nondisruptive, central fueling of a tokamak by the injection of an accelerated spheromak compact toroid (CT). Interferometry measurements indicate central fueling of the tokamak plasma on a fast time scale (0.5 ms), with more than 50% of the CT mass used for plasma fueling. The tokamak particle inventory increased by more than 30% without disruption.
