Plasma Effects in a Free Electron Laser
The introduction of a plasma and a strong guide magnetic field in a free electron laser (FEL) slows down the phase velocity of radiation, significantly reducing the requirements on beam energy for generating frequencies below the electron-cyclotron frequency (oi, < oj,). Around plasma resonance (cu, ~ wp), the FEL mode couples to two-stream instability (TSI), attaining a large growth rate, comp...

متن کاملMode-converted Electron Bernstein Waves for Heating and Current Drive in Nstx
The power coupled to electron Bernstein waves in a triplet mode conversion resonator from a fast X-mode at the plasma edge in NSTX is shown to be > 80% for fc, < f < 2fc,. The EBW damping in the plasma is strong and localized and, thus, should be useful for heating, current drive, or profile control.
متن کاملFundamental Investigation of Electron Bernstein Wave Heating and Current Drive at the WEGA Stellarator
Overdense plasma heating with electron Bernstein waves (EBWs) is of large importance for fusion, since ultra high density operation is a promising fusion scenario for stellarators and heliotrons. The EBW physics is also important for spherical tokamaks (ST). Here the plasma core is inaccessible for standard ECRH with electromagnetic waves. The EBW driven current could help to stabilize MHD-mode...
متن کاملFeasibility of a Plasma-Filled Inverse Free Electron Laser Accelerator
A high power millimeter (mm) wave, in the presence of a magnetic wiggler, produces a large longitudinal ponderomotive force that can accelerate electrons. When a plasma of density n ~ ncr, where ncr is critical density, is introduced in the interaction region, the ponderomotive force resonantly drives a plasma wave that accelerates electrons to higher energies. However, propagation of the mm wa...
