Electron fishbone dynamics studies in tokamaks using the XHMGC code
The electron fishbone modes are internal kink instabilities induced by suprathermal electrons. Ion fishbones were first observed experimentally (PDX) [1], opening the path to full theoretical understanding of these phenomena [4]. Stimulated by experimental evidence of electron fishbones (DIII-D, Compass-D, FTU, ToreSupra), theoretical analysis has also been extended to the case of modes excited...
متن کاملLinear and nonlinear dynamics of Alfvhn eigenmodes in tokamaks
Linear and nonlinear dynamics of various toroidicity induced global Alfvin eigenmodes is investigated by means of an initial value numerical code. The code uses the reduced magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model expanded to the third order in the inverse aspect ratio parameter E (E = a/R,, with a the minor radius of the plasma column and R, the major radius of the vacuum chamber). Nonlinear saturation...
متن کاملBreakdown of adiabatic invariance in spherical tokamaks
Thermal ions in spherical tokamaks have two adiabatic invariants: the magnetic moment and the longitudinal invariant. For hot ions, variations in magnetic-field strength over a gyro period can become sufficiently large to cause breakdown of the adiabatic invariance. The magnetic moment is more sensitive to perturbations than the longitudinal invariant and there exists an intermediate regime, su...
متن کاملthe study of bright and surface discrete cavity solitons dynamics in saturable nonlinear media
امروزه سالیتون ها بعنوان امواج جایگزیده ای که تحت شرایط خاص بدون تغییر شکل در محیط منتشر می-شوند، زمینه مطالعات گسترده ای در حوزه اپتیک غیرخطی هستند. در این راستا توجه به پدیده پراش گسسته، که بعنوان عامل پهن شدگی باریکه نوری در آرایه ای از موجبرهای جفت شده، ظاهر می گردد، ضروری است، زیرا سالیتون های گسسته از خنثی شدن پراش گسسته در این سیستم ها بوسیله عوامل غیرخطی بوجود می آیند. گسستگی سیستم عامل...
Nonlinear stability limit in high b tokamaks
Linearly unstable high b tokamak equilibria are shown to be nonlinearly stabilized by an axisymmetric flow containing both toroidal and poloidal components. As fingers of hot plasma produced by pressure driven ballooning instabilities start to convect out towards the bounding wall, an axisymmetric flow is self-consistently generated and opposes the growth of the fingers, maintaining confinement...
