Current Ramp-up Techniques

Current Ramp-Up Techniques is a methodological framework in plasma physics that systematically governs the initiation and controlled increase of plasma current in tokamak devices during the startup phase of fusion reactions, distinguishing it from steady-state current drive strategies by its focus on transient, time-dependent current formation.
