Abstract
Possible scenarios of auxiliary electron cyclotron plasma heating in various configurations of the next-generation open magnetic trap GDMT (Gas Dynamic Multiple Mirror trap) designed in Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics are considered. For this purpose, a full-wave impedance approach is used to model the interaction of electromagnetic waves with hot plasma, which allows one to consider the interaction of electromagnetic and quasi-electrostatic modes in the vicinity of the electron cyclotron resonance in an axisymmetric magnetic configuration. Heating scenarios using the ordinary electromagnetic mode at the fundamental harmonic and the extraordinary mode at the second harmonic are considered. For each case, the ranges of the setup parameters are determined in which a considered heating scheme can be effective; the optimal focusing of the quasi-optical microwave beam for heating efficiency is analyzed.
期刊介绍：
Plasma Physics Reports is a peer reviewed journal devoted to plasma physics. The journal covers the following topics: high-temperature plasma physics related to the problem of controlled nuclear fusion based on magnetic and inertial confinement; physics of cosmic plasma, including magnetosphere plasma, sun and stellar plasma, etc.; gas discharge plasma and plasma generated by laser and particle beams. The journal also publishes papers on such related topics as plasma electronics, generation of radiation in plasma, and plasma diagnostics. As well as other original communications, the journal publishes topical reviews and conference proceedings.
