DESCRIPTION

Characteristics of the Current Drive Experiment Upgrade (CDX-U) Low aspect ratio tokamak (R 0 /a = 1.4 – 1.5) Small (R 0 = 33.5 cm) Elongation  ~ 1.6 B T ~ 2300 gauss n e ~ 4  cm -3 T e ~ 100 eV I p ~ 70 kA Soft X-ray signals from typical discharges indicate two predominant types of low-n MHD activity: –sawteeth –“snakes”
