An inverse problem in plasma physics: The identification of the current density profile in a tokamak (English)

Numerical computations of electric currents in a plasma tokamak device are performed by applying a method of inverse problem to experimental data. Plasma is in a static equilibrium described by Grad-Shafranov equation for a typical tokamak magnetic field configuration. The problem is treated in a cylindrical geometry approximation which corresponds to a tokamak torus with a large aspect ratio. The numerical procedure of identifying nonlinear terms in Grad-Shafranov equation is performed by cubic \(B\)-splines. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0872.00045].
