Abstract

The problem of helicity injection and current drive due to ion-cyclotron waves in a bounded inhomogeneous plasma is reexamined. It is shown that Hall term contributions (which had been neglected earlier in the work of Mett and Taylor [Phys. Fluids B 4, 73 (1992)]), even in the limit of small corrections of the order of ω/Ωi (ω and Ωi are the wave and the ion-cyclotron frequencies, respectively), improve substantially the parallel electromotive force (EMF) for the resonance layer.
