State-Space Model-Enabled Reinforcement Learning for Magnetic Configuration Controlon EXL-50U
Accurate feedback control of the plasma current ($I_p$) and centroid position $(R_c,Z_c)$ is essential for the stable operation of spherical torus (ST) plasmas. Conventional proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers require extensive manual tuning and struggle with the fast, strongly coupled dynamics that aris...
