Abstract

Spherical tokamaks are low-aspect-ratio devices with plasmas that are roughly spherical in shape. To create low-aspect-ratio plasmas, the center column of the tokamak must have a diameter as small as possible. The center column should include conductors to carry the toroidal field current and may also include space for an ohmic heating (OH) solenoid, unless non-inductive methods are used to start and maintain the plasma current. All spherical tokamaks are designed to include an OH solenoid.
