Electron Cyclotron Plasma Heating in Tokamaks

  • Chapter
Reviews of Plasma Physics

Abstract

It is universally accepted at present that additional plasma heating is needed to ignite a thermonuclear reaction in a tokamak. Highly promising for this purpose are assumed to be high-frequency methods based on feeding energy to the plasma in the form of electromagnetic waves. High frequency (HF) heating is possible in various frequency bands, each with its own advantages and shortcomings [1–6].
