| Description: | |
| Experimental Approach/Plan: | Improve initial breakdown conditions and vary the plasma shape around the DIII-D ITER-similar shapes developed in previous experiments. Explore methods to minimize the PF coil current variations in achieving the shape evolution proposed for ITER startup. Benchmark simulations used for predictions for ITER. |
