dc.description.abstractThe macroscopic stability of a model ELMO Bumpy Torus (EBT) plasma taking into account variations of the field curvature along the magnetic field is numerically investigated in the long‐thin limit. When the compression term has a pole in the ring region the background ballooning mode becomes stable for any value of the hot electron beta because of strong line bending which results from the interaction of the hot electron component with the plasma. Axially longer rings give better stability, and the upper bound on the core beta can be improved by increasing the mirror ratio although at the expense of reducing stability of the background ballooning mode.en_US
