Title 219: Hybrid/AI plasmas rotating in the counter-Ip direction
Name:Pete Politzer () Affiliation:General Atomics
Research Area:Core Integration (Advanced Inductive) Presentation time: Not requested
Co-Author(s): --
Description: Determine the performance limits for counter-rotating hybrid and advanced inductive plasmas.
Experimental Approach/Plan: Apply the standard hybrid startup sequence in a negative Ip discharge. Compare confinement and stability characteristics with previous co-Ip operation.
Background: Determine whether behavior at low rotation depends on co- versus counter-rotation. Extend understanding of low rotation behavior of hybrids.
