摘要:

The final scyllac experiments are described. These experiments utilized a feedback‐stabilized,l=1,2 high‐beta stellarator configuration and like the previous feedback‐stabilization experiments were carried out in a toroidal sector, rather than a complete torus. The energy confinement time, obtained from excluded flux measurements, agrees with a two‐dimensional calculation of particle end loss from a straight theta pinch. Because simple end loss was dominant, the energy confinement time was independent of whether equilibrium adjustment or feedback stabilization fields were applied. The dynamical characteristics of the toroidal equilibrium were improved by elimination of thel=0 field used previously, as expected from theory. A modal rather than local feedback control algorithm was used. Although feedback clearly decreased them=1 motion of the plasma, the experimental test of modal feedback, which is expected from theory to be superior to local feedback, is considered inconclusive because of the limitations imposed by the sector configuration.
