Reduction of impurity line emissions associated with the ion cyclotron range of frequency (ICRF) heating is achieved by the phase control of a loop antenna array. Reduction in metal impurity emissions and radiation loss is closely correlated with the amount of power radiated from the antennae with parallel wave number near k∥ = 0. The maximum density attainable without disruption is increased over that in the Ohmic heating phase, by reduction of radiation loss.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
