Particle Transport and Electron Density Relaxation due to Stochastic Magnetic Fields in the MST Reversed Field Pinch
Particle transport and its effect on the plasma density distribution remains an important, unresolved issue in magnetic fusion plasmas [1]. Fluctuating magnetic fields can arise from global tearing instabilities that often underlie the sawtooth oscillation [2] and lead to plasma relaxation [3]. Furthermore, magnetic fluctuations are also generated by energetic particles associated with non-indu...
متن کاملNonlinear saturation of shear Alfvén modes and self-consistent energetic ion transport in burning plasmas with advanced Tokamak equilibria
Self-consistent nonlinear dynamics of Energetic Particle Modes, which are relevant for burning plasma conditions, are analyzed with respect to both saturation mechanisms and energetic particle transport. It is found that a “sensitive” parameter for Tokamak equilibria with hollow-q profiles is q at the minimum-q surface, higher q corresponding to larger particle transport. This fact has clear im...
متن کاملAn extended hybrid magnetohydrodynamics gyrokinetic model for numerical simulation of shear Alfvén waves in burning plasmas
Adopting the theoretical framework for the generalized fishbonelike dispersion relation, an extended hybrid magnetohydrodynamics gyrokinetic simulation model has been derived analytically by taking into account both thermal ion compressibility and diamagnetic effects in addition to energetic particle kinetic behaviors. The extended model has been used for implementing an extended version of hyb...
متن کاملNonlinear frequency oscillation of Alfvén eigenmodes in fusion plasmas.
A nonlinear oscillation of frequency and amplitude is found by massively parallel gyrokinetic simulations of Alfvén eigenmodes excited by energetic particles in toroidal plasmas. The fast and repetitive frequency chirping is induced by the evolution of coherent structures in the phase space. The dynamics of the coherent structures is controlled by the competition between the phase-space island ...
متن کاملGyrokinetic Simulation of Energetic Particle Turbulence and Transport
The fully self-consistent simulation of energetic particle turbulence and transport in burning plasmas such as ITER must incorporate three new physics elements: (i) kinetic effects of thermal particles at the thermal ion gyroradius (micro scale), (ii) nonlinear interactions of many meso scale (energetic particle gyroradius) shear Alfvén waves induced by the kinetic effects at the micro scale, a...
