Abstract

The present physics understandings of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instability of tokamak plasmas, the threshold conditions for its onset, and the resulting operation limits on attainable glass pressure and density and the consequences of plasma disruption and disruption related effects are reviewed and assessed in the context of their application t a future deuterium-tritium burning reactor prototype tokamak experiment such as the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). How this understanding projects or extrapolates to an ITER class reactor regime tokamak is discussed. Extrapolations to the specific ITER design concept are illustrated and the degree of adequacy of the present understanding is assessed.
