متن کاملProperties of geodesic acoustic modes and the relation to density fluctuations.
The geodesic acoustic mode (GAM) is a high frequency branch of zonal flows, which is observed in toroidal plasmas. Because of toroidal curvature effects, density fluctuations are excited, which are investigated with the O-mode correlation reflectometer at TEXTOR. This Letter reports on the poloidal distribution of GAM induced density fluctuation and compares them with theoretical predictions. T...
متن کاملEffects of plasma current on nonlinear interactions of ITG turbulence, zonal flows and geodesic acoustic modes
The mutual interactions of ion temperature gradient (ITG) driven modes, zonal flows and geodesic acoustic modes (GAM) in tokamak plasmas are investigated using a global nonlinear gyrokinetic formulation with totally unconstrained evolution of temperature gradient and profile. A series of numerical simulations with the same initial temperature and density profile specifications is performed usin...
متن کاملKinetic theory of Geodesic Acoustic Modes: radial structures and nonlinear excitations
Geodesic Acoustic Modes (GAM) are shown to constitute a continuous spectrum due to radial inhomogeneities. The existence of a singular layer causes GAM to mode convert to short-wavelength kinetic GAM (KGAM) via finite ion Larmor radii; analogous to kinetic Alfvén waves (KAW). KGAM are shown to propagate radially outward; consistent with experimental observations and numerical simulation results...
متن کاملImpact of energetic-particle-driven geodesic acoustic modes on turbulence.
The impact on turbulent transport of geodesic acoustic modes excited by energetic particles is evidenced for the first time in flux-driven 5D gyrokinetic simulations using the Gysela code. Energetic geodesic acoustic modes (EGAMs) are excited in a regime with a transport barrier in the outer radial region. The interaction between EGAMs and turbulence is such that turbulent transport can be enha...
