Coordinates related to the Solov'ev configuration are used to calculate the precession frequency and kinetic contribu- tion. It is shown that elongation does not change the precession frequency and the kinetic energy. Growth rates of the E-fishbone vary with elongation which essentially has destabilizing effects. For elongated tokamaks, triangularity has a stabilizing effect on the modes which play a compensative role. The results may apply to Sunist.展开更多

It is shown that the combined effects of the parallel flow and the anisotropic pressure can be added to give a modified Grad-Shafranov equation. Effects of the anisotropic pressure and the parallel flow on the equilibrium's properties such as the safety factor and the magnetic well are clarified. The most prominent characteristic of these two effects is the deviations of both the p//-contours and the p⊥-contours from the magnetic flux contours.展开更多
