Determination of plasma boundaries in the experiments with compact torus
Abstract
A problem of determination of the plasma boundary profile has appeared in experiments with a compact torus. A method for solving the inverse problem providing for appreciable specification of a separatrix shape, as compared to the earlier methods, is proposed. According to the measured distribution of external magnetic field along the discharge tube and magnetic flux through the torus the separatrix shape, separating closed and opened, is calculated. Different approximations are studied.
