Non-axisymmetric equilibrium reconstruction for stellarators, reversed field pinches and tokamaks

Axisymmetric equilibrium reconstruction using magnetohydrodynamic equilibrium solutions to the Grad?Shafranov equation has long been an important tool for interpreting tokamak experiments. This paper describes recent results in non-axisymmetric (three-dimensional) equilibrium reconstruction of nominally axisymmetric plasmas (tokamaks and reversed field pinches (RFPs)), and fully non-axisymmetric plasmas (stellarators). Results from applying the V3FIT code to CTH and HSX stellarator plasmas, RFX-mod RFP plasmas and the DIII-D tokamak are presented.
