Turbulent Fluctuations with the Electron Gyro-Scale in NSTX Plasmas
Various theories and numerical simulations support the conjecture that the ubiquitous problem of anomalous electron transport in tokamaks may arise from an electron gyro-scale turbulence driven by the electron temperature gradient. To check whether such turbulence is present in plasmas of the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX), measurements of turbulent fluctuations were performed with ...
متن کاملElectron Bernstein Wave Research on CDX-U and NSTX
Mode-converted electron Bernstein waves (EBWs) potentially allow the measurement of local electron temperature (Te) and the implementation of local heating and current drive in spherical torus (ST) devices, which are not directly accessible to low harmonic electron cyclotron waves. This paper reports on the measurement of X-mode radiation mode-converted from EBWs observed normal to the magnetic...
متن کاملNonthermal Electron Bernstein Emission in Nstx-like Discharges
In overdense plasma for which the plasma frequency exceeds the cyclotron frequency, X-mode, nearperpendicular cyclotron emission does not propagate to the outboard plasma edge. However, under these conditions it remains possible for electron Bernstein waves (EBWs) to transmit emitted radiation from central plasma to the plasma exterior via a mode conversion to electromagnetic waves near the pla...
متن کاملStatus of two-dimensional ion velocity measurement system in NSTX
A two-dimensional ion velocity measurement system is being developed under a US-JAPAN collaborative activity. The diagnostic is used to determine Doppler shifts from the intensity ratio of a visible line from the same light source, measured with two interference filters that have different transmission pass bands. A fast visible camera is used as two-dimensional detector. The system was tested ...
متن کاملSimulation of microtearing turbulence in NSTX
Thermal energy confinement times in NSTX dimensionless parameter scans increase with decreasing collisionality. While ion thermal transport is neoclassical, the source of anomalous electron thermal transport in these discharges remains unclear, leading to considerable uncertainty when extrapolating to future ST devices at much lower collisionality. Linear gyrokinetic simulations find microteari...
