| الوصف: | A significant number of confined energetic electrons have been observed outside the Last Closed Flux Surface (LCFS) of the solenoid-free, ECRH sustained plasmas in the EXL-50 spherical torus. Several diagnostics have been applied, for the first time, to investigate the key characters of energetic electrons. Experiments reveal the existence of high-temperature low density electrons, which can carry relatively a large amount of the stored energy. The boundary between the thermal plasma and the energetic electron fluid appears to be clearly separated and the distance between the two boundaries can reach tens of centimeters (around the size of the minor radius of the thermal plasma). This implies that the Grad-Shafranov equilibrium is not suitable to describe the equilibrium of the EXL-50 plasma and a multi-fluid model is required. Particle dynamics simulations of full orbits show that energetic electrons can be well confined outside the LCFS. This is consistent with the experimental observations. |
