Nuclear Fusion Physics and Technology/Tokamak Device

Note: Basic assumptions Lets assume electromagnetic field described by electric and magnetic vector fields and plasma described by probability density . Also lets assume that basic terms are self-explaining. Definition: Magnetic vessel Magnetic vessel is electromagnetic field device aimed for plasma keeping. Definition: Linear configuration Linear configuration of magnetic vessel is electromagnetic field with parallel field lines and open ends. Definition: Toroidal configuration Toroidal configuration of magnetic vessel is toroidal electromagnetic field with closed ends. Definition: Number 8 configuration Number 8 configuration of magnetic vessel is crossed electromagnetic field with closed ends and field lines in number 8 shape. Definition: Stelarator Stelarator is axial asymmetric magnetic vessel with toroidal configuration. Definition: Poloidal magnetic field Poloidal magnetic field of toroidal magnetic vessel is magnetic field component with field lines closed perpendicular around coordinate . Definition: Toroidal magnetic field Toroidal magnetic field of toroidal magnetic vessel is magnetic field component with field lines closed perpendicular around coordinate . Definition: Main axis Definition: Magnetic axis Definition: Major radius Major radius is distance between main axis to magnetic axis. Definition: Minor radius Minor radius is distance between magnetic axis and plasma edge. (plasma edge definition needed, maybe 1/e drop of f(r)?) Definition: Aspect ratio Aspect ratio is ratio of major radius and minor radius
