Description
A notable influence of the shape of the plasma on the dynamics of RFPs is clearly illustrated by simulations of fully nonlinear visco-resistive magnetohydrodynamics. The axial mode-spectrum is qualitatively changed in cylinders with elliptic cross-section. The results suggest that shaping will change, and possibly improve the confinement of RFPs.
