ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus for merging of tokamak plasmas, having applications including pseudo steady-state tokamak operation, refueling, impurity removal and plasma heating. In such systems, currents of two merging tokamak plasmas are provided in the same direction so that the plasma columns attract each other, and the merging of the plasmas is carried out under the control of appropriate guiding fields.
