Abstract

A semi-analytic method is used to solve the Grad-Shafranov equation for a range of compact torus plasma configurations which have ellipsoidal separatrices, zero toroidal magnetic field and pressure P proportional to the square of the poloidal flux function 1[1. The equilibria are compared with the analytic solutions of the Solov'ev model, for which P ex 1[1.
