Implications of vertical stability control on the SPARC tokamak

Implications of vertical stability control on the SPARC tokamak

To achieve its performance goals, SPARC plans to operate in equilibrium configurations with a strong elongation of $\kappa_\mathrm{areal}\sim1.75$ , which in turn will destabilize the n  = 0 vertical instability. However, SPARC also features a relatively thick conducting wall that is designed to wit...
