    Transient Coaxial Helicity Injection (CHI) in the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX) has generated toroidal current on closed flux surfaces without the use of the central solenoid. When induction from the solenoid was added, CHI initiated discharges in NSTX achieved 1 MA of plasma current using 65% of the solenoid flux of standard induction-only discharges. In addition, the...

    STOR-1M and STOR-M tokamaks have been impacting a fusion research in two areas: [1] Alternating current (AC) operation, and [2] Central solenoid (CS)-less plasma current start-up in a tokamak. I would like to look back on these researches and talk about their possible future impacts. [1] AC operation in STOR-1M and STOR-M: In design of STOR-1M and -M tokamaks, the iron core image field...

    Current fueling technologies, such as gas puffing or pellet injection, are unable to send fuels directly to the reactor core due to premature evaporation and ionization at the edge of the reactor. Compact torus (CT) injection as a means for fueling a magnetically confinement fusion reactor as a research topic at the University of Saskatchewan started in early 90’s. Compact torus formed in a...
