Experimental and theoretical studies of high-beta tokamaks
Abstract
Recent experimental and theoretical results on high-beta pinch tokamaks in the USA are summarized. Heating, confinement and plasma dynamics are reported for Columbia Torus I, Torus II and Maryland Thor. Related theoretical and 2D transport and radiation calculations are presented.
