Abstract:Studying impurity behavior in a magnetically confined plasma is essential for fusion reactor developments. A tracer-containing compact toroid (TCCT) injection have been developed as a new tracer injection technique for studying impurity accumulation and behavior in magnetically confined fusion plasmas. We generated and ejected the TCCT using a compact toroid (CT) injector that had successfully demonstrated CT injection fueling into a large field-reversed configuration (FRC). Tracer ions, e.g., tungsten, copper… Show more
