Ohmic heating of tokamak plasmas is insufficient, and so some form of auxilliary heating is essential. In recent years heating at the ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF) has been under active study as a cost effective and efficient alternative to neutral beam heating [1, 2]. At UCLA experiments aimed at understanding the generation mechanisms and propagation properties of the electrostatic waves produced during ICRF heating have been initiated. These experiments have produced the first direct observation in a tokamak of electrostatic modes in the ICRF.","PeriodicalId":254777,"journal":{"name":"1981 International Conference on Submillimeter Waves and Their Applications","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1981-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117188819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
