This paper reviews the research on the reversed field pinch (RFP) in the last three decades.
Substantial experimental and theoretical progress and transformational changes have been …

Pellet fuelling of improved confinement Madison Symmetric Torus (MST) plasmas has
resulted in high density and high plasma beta. The density in improved confinement …

The isotope effect is known to influence the transport in tokamak machines. In this paper is
investigated the isotope effect in the reversed field pinch configuration comparing the …

In Madison Symmetric Torus [Dexter et al, Fusion Technol. 19, 131 (1991)] discharges
where improved confinement is brought about by modification of the current profile, pellet …

The particle and energy transport in reversed field pinch experiments is affected by the
locking in phase of the tearing modes, also dubbed dynamo modes, that sustain the …

Electron and ion temperatures T e0 and T i, respectively, are measured and global
confinement properties are estimated at I p⩽ 400 kA for the first time in the TPE-RX reversed …

An analysis of the m= 0 magnetic perturbation in the vacuum region of an RFP device is
carried out using toroidal flux and toroidal field measurements. This perturbation is …

The experimental and theoretical activity performed in the RFX device has allowed a deeper
insight into the MHD properties of the reversed field pinch (RFP) configuration. A set of …

In the reversed field experiment the electron temperature and density at the edge are
measured from the intensity ratio of selected lines emitted by an atomic helium beam …

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) simulations of impurity dynamics in the vicinity of a Tore
Supra ergodic divertor neutralizer are presented and compared with spectroscopic …
