Various Plasma-Stabilization Methods for Controlled Thermonuclear Fusion: Comparison and Analysis

摘要

To improve the stability and containment time of plasma in a magnetic field, the plasma stabiliation for controlled thermonuclear fusion must be developed. The methods or principles of magnetic shear, magnetic well, dynamic, and feedback stabiliation are of primary importance and are given primary consideration. The objectives of this research are to: Review various stabilizing methods; Compare the effectiveness, advantages and disadvantages of some stabilizing methods; and Deduce from the results obtained a new idea or original method for understanding plasma instability and improving plasma stabilization.
