Sawtooth Instability in Tokamak Plasmas
Tóm tắt
The Sawtooth instability is a familiar feature in Tokamak plasmas. It appears as a regularly recurring reorganisation of the core plasma. A brief survey of the experimental observations on many Tokamaks is presented. A qualitative description of the relevant theoretical ideas and of how they have evolved from early magnetic reconnection models in response to increasingly detailed experimental data, is also presented.
