Applications of Inductive Sources of Discharge in Nuclear Fusion

This book discusses the versatility of inductive sources of plasma as an advanced enabling tool for various applications in the field of Nuclear Fusion. Inductive sources of discharge have found various applications in basic plasma laboratory experiments and industrial applications. An objective of this work is to introduce some innovative applications of such celebrated sources of plasma generation directly into the field of Nuclear Fusion. An extensive discussion on the experimental results of application of Inductive sources operated in Ion Cyclotron range of Radio Frequency (ICRF) in Current Drive and Tokamak Wall-Conditioning has been presented in this book. This book is meant for Plasma Physicists, researchers and all those ingenious minds, in the field of Nuclear Fusion, who are consistently working towards harnessing the magic of plasma for the greater benefit of humanity.
