Properties of geodesic acoustic modes and the relation to density fluctuations.
نویسندگان
چکیده
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. The influence of the GAM flows on the ambient turbulence is studied, too.

The Study of Correlation Properties of Geodesic Acoustic Modes in the T-10 Tokamak
Geodesic acoustic mode (GAM) of electrostatic and density fluctuations are simultaneously measured by Heavy Ion Beam Probe and Correlation Reflectometry. The local values of electric potential and density fluctuations demonstrate the significant coherency and constant phase shift at GAM frequency range. The existence of the long-distance (one quarter of the torus) correlations of electric poten...

In this paper, the phononic structure and Enthalpy of CaB2 compound in simple hexagonal and orthorhombic phase have been investigated. The calculations were performed using the pseudo-potential method in the framework of the density functional theory and using the Quantum-Espresso code. Using the group theory and the characteristic table of the composition point group, the phonon modes were ide...
متن کاملSynchronization of Geodesic Acoustic Modes and Magnetic Fluctuations in Toroidal Plasmas.
The synchronization of geodesic acoustic modes (GAMs) and magnetic fluctuations is identified in the edge plasmas of the HL-2A tokamak. Mesoscale electric fluctuations (MSEFs) having components of a dominant GAM, and m/n=6/2 potential fluctuations are found at the same frequency as that of the magnetic fluctuations of m/n=6/2 (m and n are poloidal and toroidal mode numbers, respectively). The t...

This work is a study of the Earths free oscillations considering a merge of solid and liquid model. At the turn of 19th century Geophysicists presented the theory of the free oscillations for a self-gravitating, isotropic and compressible sphere. Assuming a steel structure for an Earth size sphere, they predicted a period of oscillation of about 1 hour. About 50 years later, the free oscillat...
