Observation of odd toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes.
Experimental evidence is presented for the existence of the theoretically predicted odd toroidicity induced Alfvén eigenmode (TAE) from the simultaneous appearance of odd and even TAEs in a normal shear discharge of the joint European torus. The modes are observed in low central magnetic shear plasmas created by injecting lower hybrid current drive. A fast ion population was created by applying...
متن کاملNonlinear excitations of zonal structures by toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes.
Zonal flows and, more generally, zonal structures are known to play important self-regulatory roles in the dynamics of microscopic drift-wave-type turbulences. Since toroidal Alfvén eigenmode (TAE) plays crucial roles in the Alfvén wave instabilities in burning fusion plasmas, it is, thus, important to understand and assess the possible roles of zonal flow and structures on the nonlinear dynami...
متن کاملOn the saturation number of graphs
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple connected graph. A matching $M$ in a graph $G$ is a collection of edges of $G$ such that no two edges from $M$ share a vertex. A matching $M$ is maximal if it cannot be extended to a larger matching in $G$. The cardinality of any smallest maximal matching in $G$ is the saturation number of $G$ and is denoted by $s(G)$. In this paper we study the saturation numbe...
متن کاملCrossing Number of Toroidal Graphs
It is shown that if a graph of n vertices can be drawn on the torus without edge crossings and the maximum degree of its vertices is at most d, then its planar crossing number cannot exceed cdn, where c is a constant. This bound, conjectured by Brass, cannot be improved, apart from the value of the constant. We strengthen and generalize this result to the case when the graph has a crossing-free...
متن کاملObservations of Coupled Spheroidal and Toroidal Modes
In low-frequency seismic spectra the Coriolis force theoretically causes quasi-degenerate coupling of spheroidal and toroidal modes whose spherical harmonic degrees differ by unity and whose frequencies are close. It has been found that the coupling causes clearly observable effects on seismic spectra below 3.0 mHz. Many fundamental toroidal modes have a spheroidal component and vice versa. For...
