- For the Uragan-2M stellarator, a glow discharge cleaning (GDC) system is developed. An overview of the GDC system design is presented. The first experimental studies of GDC in an argon atmosphere have been carried out. The dependence of the breakdown voltage on the argon pressure is determined. The current-voltage characteristics of the gas discharge were measured as a function of the working gas pressure also in presence of a magnetic field.

- This paper summarizes previous results and presents new studies on the ICRF plasma creation both in pure gases and gas mixtures. In all the experiments, the two-strap antenna was operated in monopole phasing with applied RF power of ∼100 kW. The research for plasma creation was carried out at RF frequencies near the fundamental hydrogen cyclotron harmonic.

- In support of the ICRF experiments planned on the Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) stellarator, i.e. fast ion generation, wall conditioning, target plasma production and heating, a first experimental study on plasma production has been made in the Uragan-2M (U-2M) stellarator using W7-X-like two-strap antenna. In all the experiments, antenna monopole phasing was used. The W7-X-like antenna operation with launched radiofrequency power of ~100 kW have been performed in helium (p = (4–14) × 10−2 Pa) with the vacuum vessel walls pre-loaded with hydrogen. Production of plasma with a density higher than 1012 cm−3 was observed near the first harmonic of the hydrogen cyclotron frequency. Operation at first hydrogen harmonic is feasible in W7-X future ICRF experiments.

- Plasma production experiments in helium at Uragan-2M have been performed to investigate the role of the hydrogen minority in helium. The experiments presented here were carried on with a controlled minority hydrogen concentration. The hydrogen minority allowed one to increase plasma density more than three times as compared with pure helium. The obtained plasma density is highest for whole time of Uragan-2M operation. The developed scenario allowed to decrease the neutral gas pressure at which the plasma production is possible. This is a requirement for achieving regimes of plasma production with full ionization. Although the initial gas mixture 14%H2 + 86%He can be treated as optimum, there is no sensitive dependence on hydrogen minority concentration, which makes the scenario robust. This study, together with initial LHD experiments, confirm the prospects of target plasma production by ICRF waves for stellarator type machines.
