The formation of a core region with improved electron confinement is reported in the recent full current drive operation of Tore Supra, where the plasma current is sustained with the lower hybrid (LH) wave. Current profile evolution and thermal electron transport coefficients are assessed directly by using the data of the new fast electron bremsstrahlung tomography that provides the most accurate determination of the LH current and power deposition profiles. The spontaneous rise of the core electron temperature observed a few seconds after the application of the LH power is ascribed to a bifurcation towards a state of reduced electron transport. The role of the magnetic shear is invoked to partly stabilize the anomalous electron turbulence. The electron temperature transition occurs when the q-profile evolves towards a non-inductive state with a non-monotonic shape, i.e. when the magnetic shear in the plasma core is reduced to close to zero. The improved core confinement phase is often terminated by a sudden MHD activity when the minimum qapproaches 2.

電子閉じ込めが改善されたコア領域の形成が、Tore Supraにおける最近の全電流駆動運転で報告されており、そこではプラズマ電流が低域混成(LH)波によって維持されている。電流分布の時間発展と熱的電子輸送係数は、LH電流および電力堆積分布の最も正確な決定を提供する新しい高速電子制動放射トモグラフィーのデータを用いて直接評価された。LH電力印加の数秒後に観測されたコア電子温度の自発的な上昇は、電子輸送が低減された状態への分岐に帰属される。磁気シアの役割が、異常電子乱流を部分的に安定化するものとして示唆されている。電子温度遷移は、q分布が非誘導状態へと進化し、非単調な形状を有するとき、すなわちコア領域の磁気シアがゼロに近づくまで低減されるときに発生する。改善されたコア閉じ込め位相は、最小qが2に近づくときの突然のMHD活動によってしばしば終了する。
