Ultrahigh resolution simulations of mode converted ion cyclotron waves and lower hybrid waves

Full Wave studies of mode conversion (MC) processes in toroidal plasmas have required prohibitive amount of computer resources in the past because of the disparate spatial scales involved. The TORIC code [1] solves the linear sixth order reduced wave equation for the ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF), in toroidal geometry using a Fourier representation for the poloidal dimension and fin...

ITER Relevant Simulations of Lower Hybrid and Ion Cyclotron Waves with Self-Consistent Non-Maxwellian Species

The next step toward fusion as a practical energy source is the design and construction of ITER. ITER relies in part on ion-cyclotron radio frequency (ICRF) power to heat the deuterium-tritium plasma to fusion temperatures as well as to provide a portion of the current during flat-top operations. Lower hybrid (LH) RF power is under consideration as an upgrade to the baseline heating and current...

Saturation of electron cyclotron maser by lower-hybrid waves

We perform a numerical study on the quasilinear relaxation of an electron cyclotron maser on the initially dominant mode. We focus thereby on a situation where the initially dominant modes are quasi-electrostatic lower hybrid (lh) waves, which have not been treated in preceding studies. To this end, we chose 0.2 ≤ ωp/ωBe < 0.5 (ωp: plasma-, ωBe: electron cyclotron frequency) and an initial loss...

Experimental observation of ion heating by mode- converted ion Bernstein waves in tokamak plasmas

We report the experimental observation of ion heating by the mode-converted ion Bernstein waves (MC IBWs) in tokamak plasmas. The MC IBW is created from the fast waves launched from the high-field-side antenna in the HT-7 tokamak in plasmas consisting of deuterium majority, hydrogen minority and 7Li ions. Experimental evidence and numerical simulation show that the interaction between the MC IB...

Spiky parallel electrostatic ion cyclotron and ion acoustic waves

One of the interesting observations from the FAST satellite is the detection of strong spiky waveforms in the parallel electric field in association with ion cyclotron oscillations in the perpendicular electric fields. We report here an analytical model of the coupled nonlinear ion cyclotron and ion-acoustic waves, which could explain the observations. Using the fluid equations for the plasma c...
