Abstract

Bean-shaped configurations have been successfully formed in the PBX tokamak and values of over 5% have been obtained. These discharges still lie in the first stability regime for ballooning modes, and magnetohydrodynamics stability analysis implicates the external kink as responsible for the present limit.
