摘要
In EXL-50 plasma currents over 100 kA are non-inductively generated and maintained solely by electron cyclotron heating (ECH) power with an efficiency of similar to 1 A W-1. These currents are carried by energetic electrons (EEs) in the energy range from several tens of keV up to several hundreds of keV which also account for almost all pressure in plasma. This EE component can be viewed as a large number collection of various periodic orbits of energetic particles. Based on this picture we have developed a method for particle orbit description of the EE component in a typical plasma at IP
