摘要
We describe the suppression of ionization instability and the control of a magnetohydrodynamic electrical power-generating plasma by coupling with a radio-frequency (rf) electromagnetic field. The rf heating stabilizes the unstable plasma behavior and homogenizes the nonuniform plasma structure, whereby the power- generating performance is significantly improved.
