Abstract
  • Helical states are routinely observed in the RFX-mod reversed field pinch [1] and their study and interpretation needs adequate equilibrium reconstruction. This has to be done constraining the reconstruction with experimental measurements. Give n the 3D nature of such states, on the one hand for solving the direct equilibrium problem the VMEC code [2] has been adapted and used also for the reversed field pinch configuration. On the other hand, to solve the inverse problem (i.e. equilibrium reconstruction from data) the V3FIT code [3] is being used in order to exploit the large number of measurements present in the RFX-mod experiment. The link between the q profile and topology is addressed showing the role of shear reversal to reach a helical core [4]. Also we present the limitation in using only extern al measurements and the role of pressure in the determination of a helical equilibrium: significant information is obtained using temperature and density measurements as well as SXR emissivity signals.
