dc.description.abstractAn analytical calculation is carried out to determine the plasma current and poloidal beta for a toroidal plasma with an elliptic cross section under the constraint of flux conservation. It is shown that the pressure buildup during heating occurs in two stages: An outward shift in the magnetic axis and an elongation in the flux surfaces. The total plasma current increases with the pressure variable more rapidly for an elliptic cross section than it does for a circular cross section. This current rise produces a rather slow rise of the poloidal beta with pressure, particularly for large elongations. The ensuing class of flux conserving equilibria is characterized by large beta but modest poloidal beta.en_US
