Journal ArticleDOI

Self-organized helical equilibria as a new paradigm for ohmically heated fusion plasmas

TL;DR: In this paper, the evolution of a reversed-field-pinch plasma towards a self-organized single-helicity state suggests that instability problems, which have previously hindered the development of these devices, could now be overcome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quasi-single helicity-reversed field-pinch plasmas

TL;DR: The results set a new frame for improving confinement in high current nonchaotic RFP's, which show a decrease of magnetic chaos and the formation of a coherent helical structure in the plasma, whose imaging and temperature profile are provided for the first time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feedback stabilization of multiple resistive wall modes

TL;DR: The feedback stabilization of nonresonant RWMs also has an effect on tearing modes that are resonant in the central plasma, leading to a significant prolongation of the discharge pulse.
Journal ArticleDOI

Core transport improvement during poloidal current drive in the rfx reversed field pinch

TL;DR: In this article, the electron temperature profile is seen to peak in the plasma core, consistently with a reduction of the heat conductivity due to a substantial decrease of MHD dynamo fluctuations.
