In the figure are illustrated the main scenari of  IGNITOR operation

 Time evolution of a  discharge with 11 MA and 13 T simulated by the JETTO code, showing a) temperature, b) density, c) powers in MW and the parameter Qa. Ignition is marked by the vertical dotted line

 
 

 

The Equilibrium Configuration for 11 MA, 13 T, is evaluated by the EQUISL code, with central q about 0.9

Details on the time evolution of density and temperature in typical IGNITOR discharges can be find in several publications, among them
see A. Airoldi and G. Cenacchi (2001), Nucl. Fusion 41, 687; B. Coppi, A. Airoldi, F. Bombarda, G. Cenacchi, P. Detragiache, L. E. Sugiyama (2001), Nucl. Fusion 41(9), pp. 1253; A. Airoldi and G. Cenacchi(1997), Nucl. Fusion 37, pp. 1117
