متن کاملExperimental 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...
متن کاملMeasurements of low-energy neutral hydrogen efflux during ICRF heating
Using the Low Energy Neutral Atom Spectrometer, measurements were made of the H° and D° efflux from PLT during ion cyclotron heating experiments. The application of RF power at frequencies appropriate to fundamental and second-harmonic heating results in a rapid, toroidally uniform rise in the charge-exchange efflux at a rate of about 10 cm'^s" -MW". This flux increase is larger at lower plasma...
متن کاملICRF Heating in Alcator C-Mod:
Alcator C-Mod, the high field, high density, diverted, compact tokamak in the world's portfolio of high performance plasma fusion devices, is heated exclusively with ICRF auxiliary power. In this paper an overview of recent results is summarized, with particular attention given to the importance of RF operation and the flexibility afforded by different heating scenarios. Besides the routine min...
متن کاملPFC / JA - 96 - 9 Survey of ICRF Heating Experiments and Enhanced Performance Modes in Alcator C - Mod
Results of ICRF heating experiments in Alcator C-Mod during the November 1994 June 1995 campaign are summarized. Efficient heating of high density ( , ; 3 x 1020 m-3 ) plasmas was demonstrated with high power densities (up to 5 MW/m 3 volume averaged, 0.6 MW/m 2 surface averaged). These experiments were carried out with RF powers up to 3.5 MW at 80 MHz, at magnetic fields up to 8 T and plasma c...
