Shaping Effects on Magnetohydrodynamic Instabilities in a Tokamak Plasma Surrounded by a Resistive Wall

The primary achievement of this study is the development of a new approach for optimizing the plasma shape in a tokamak fusion energy reactor. In the interest of producing the largest possible fusion power output, the shape is optimized to allow for the highest possible beta - the ratio of the fluid...
