High βp plasma formation using off-axis ECCD in Ohmic heated plasma in the spherical tokamak QUEST

High poloidal beta (ɛβp ~ 1) operation in steady state condition in tokamaks is of great interest and has previously been demonstrated using NBI, LHCD and low current (Ip) plasma for a short time (<0.5 s). A very few experiments however, have been performed towards the investigation of highest ob...
