Abstract
By applying 75 kW of pulsed rf power to a decaying hydrogen plasma following turbulent heating, we have maintained a plasma density of to 5 × for the 600-μ sec duration of the rf pulse. Neutral energy analyzer measurements of ion temperature indicate eV, while diamagnetic loop measurements indicate . Probe measurements made using different equipment show discrete changes in the amplitude of the rf signals near the harmonics of the ion cyclotron frequency.
