Title:

Pressure-induced Shift of the Plasma in a Helical System with Ideally Conducting Wall

Date of publication:

Jan. 2004

Key words:

Stellarator, p1asma equi1ibrium, finite-beta effects, plasma shift, ideal wall

Abstract:

The g1obal p1asma shift is calculated analytically for a he1ica1 system with an ideal wall. The derived expression for the plasma shift, incorporating both the finite-beta p1asma expansion and the opposing reaction of the nearby ideal wall, can be used for interpreting the observable high-beta equilibrium effects in LHD and other he1ical devices.
