The interaction of the ITER first wall with magnetic perturbations
Allen H. Boozer
Mitigation of the multiple risks associated with disruptions and runaway electrons in tokamaks involves competing demands. Success requires that each risk be understood sufficientl…
Example of exponentially enhanced magnetic reconnection driven by a spatially-bounded and laminar ideal flow
Allen H Boozer, Todd Elder
In laboratory and natural plasmas of practical interest, the spatial scale at which magnetic field lines lose distinguishability differs enormously from the scale of magn…
Magnetic reconnection and thermal equilibration
Allen Boozer
When a magnetic field is forced to evolve on a time scale , as by footpoint motions driving the solar corona or non-axisymmetric instabilities in tokamaks, the magnetic fie…
Magnetic nulls in interacting dipolar fields
Todd Elder, Allen H. Boozer
The prominence of nulls in reconnection theory is due to the expected singular current density and the indeterminacy of field-lines at a magnetic null. Electron inertia changes the…
Flattening of the tokamak current profile by a fast magnetic reconnection with implications for the solar corona
Allen H Boozer
During tokamak disruptions the profile of the net parallel current is observed to flatten on a time scale that is so fast that it must be due to a fast magnetic reconnection. After…
Changed paradigm of fast magnetic reconnection
Allen H Boozer
Although magnetic reconnection takes place in three-dimensional space, reconnection theory has focused on two-dimensional models for more than sixty years. Well-posed three-dimensi…
